Journey and Outcome

Screenshot 2025-10-26 171303_edited.jpg

A design exploration in creating a sustainable writing experience through bamboo and human-centered ergonomics. The project began with sketch ideations exploring diverse grip forms, followed by 3D modeling in Rhino and rapid prototyping through 3D printing. The most refined forms were crafted in bamboo, blending natural materiality with comfort and function. User testing informed subtle refinements, resulting in a pen that feels as intuitive as it is sustainable.
