PenExquisite
An object. A point of view.
A sculptural resting place for an everyday instrument. An original design by Heron Tang, revisited for the first product release from nP Design.
FORM / LIGHT / EVERYDAY USE
A familiar gesture.
Seen differently.
Original visualisation from the PenExquisite Process Book.
ORIGINAL 001
From a line, a form.
PenExquisite explores how a small, functional object can carry a distinct point of view. An angled pen meets a flowing, transparent form. The process moves from pencil sketches to renderings and resin-printed prototypes.
DESIGN & SOURCE
Design by Heron Tang. Images selected from the original 77-page PenExquisite Process Book. Renderings and prototype photographs are identified separately.
Light through form
Transparent surfaces reveal a different profile from each side.
From screen to hand
Resin-printed prototypes bring the design into physical scale.
01 / THE FORM
Curves, from every side.
Original rendering studies. The different bases are part of the design exploration, not a catalogue of finished products.
02 / IN CONTEXT
A place on the desk.
Glass, patterned light and a writing instrument. The object is explored as part of a workspace, not in isolation.
03 / MADE PHYSICAL
Off the screen. In the hand.
Archive photographs of physical resin prototypes. The display stands shown are separate from the pen holder.
04 / THE FIRST LINES
The form began here.
