TP Polygon Pen Ruler | A writing instrument that combines a ball pen and a ruler

Two years ago, the original studio launched TP², an aluminum replaceable ballpoint pen and mechanical pencil. T stands for triangle, and P² stands for ballpoint pen and mechanical pencil. TP² can not only stand up, but also provides two ways to hold the pen, ready to help you measure and write. TP² has been awarded the 2021 IF Design Award and we are extremely grateful to have received such an honour. This year we have simplified and upgraded the TP series. The newly designed TP enhances your writing experience, adding to its beauty while bringing you a new touch. What’s even more encouraging to us is that TP has just won the 2022 IF Design Award, which confirms the professional judges’ recognition of the TP series. TP is a writing instrument that combines a ball pen and a ruler. The pen cover is designed with measuring and line-drawing functions, and also provides another way to hold the pen. The magnetic design at the head and tail of the pen, combined with the characteristics of aluminum alloy, meets the needs of lightweight and portable use. The design concept is derived from geometric patterns, presenting a combination of triangles and hexagons in a symmetrical manner. Symmetry represents balance, and balance can create a harmonious, complete and beautiful effect on the design, making TP a writing instrument that is both beautiful and classic. This time, a playful element has been added to the design. The magnetic design of the pen barrel and pen cover allows you to slide out the pen barrel with one hand at any time, which can relieve stress and resist anxiety in a tense office environment. The color selection uses three neutral colors including matte black, dark green and sand to enhance the sense of fashion and elegance. The 8.85mm pen barrel feels light to hold and the pen rotates smoothly without jamming. The grip with the pen cover is suitable for those who like a thicker pen barrel. The hexagonal pen cover is like a childhood pen holder, making it easy to write for a long time without getting tired. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634790355/t903bdn0xpbjguwehf5i.jpg T.P. concept Geometry and symmetry are key elements of our designs. The TP collection is inspired by the Flower of Life - one of the sacred geometric patterns used in many cultures around the world since ancient times, many believe that the secrets of the Flower of Life contain important information about the universe and all living things. Every time you look at this type of pattern, you can feel the special energy of nature, which is why we incorporate the flower of life into the design. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634790470/aveuqdyukgcr4xyov6zp.jpg TP is a "Trixagonal" designed pen case composed of triangles and hexagons with an 8.85mm pen barrel. This combination brings symmetry and harmony to the design. The "Trixagonal" designed pen cover not only brings visual enjoyment to TP, but also allows the pen barrel to fit comfortably between your fingers, making you feel relaxed when writing. The pen cover also provides a dual-scale measurement function to help you draw accurately at any time. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634790514/so0lmnbpvfeqd9wludt7.jpg The design of TP has been simplified and improved. Magnetic accessories are added to the pen cover and pen barrel to properly secure the pen barrel in the pen cover, and the pen can be easily slid out by gently pushing it with your thumb. TP is a pen designed based on ergonomics and minimalist aesthetics, which perfectly provides the most comfortable writing experience day after day. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634790573/skxgobnpgtzgmhsp7wyh.jpg 12.5 cm and 4.9 inch rulers are engraved on both sides of the pen case https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634790611/il8n8ylpaufxespzf92l.jpg https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634790642/ykkofwztkyg2ppojjg0i.jpg Magnet design inside the pen case and pen barrel Ordinary pens rarely use magnets to fix the pen barrel in the pen case. The new magnet design inside TP brings you a new experience. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634790693/iq9verxvbofbyttaiyvj.jpg Precision machining allows the aluminum cover and barrel to fit together perfectly, creating a piston effect when the barrel slides in and out of the cover. A magnet accessory inside the case holds the pen barrel in place while securely protecting the nib. T.P. Features The pen cover is a ruler and also provides 2 ways to hold the pen: 1. Hold the pen barrel directly - the pen barrel with a diameter of 8.85mm is smooth and lightweight, has a light grip, and the pen rotates smoothly without jamming; 2. Equipped with a pen cover to hold - the "Trixagonal" pen cover simulates the pencil grip we used when we were children, reducing writing fatigue and allowing us to write more comfortably. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634791034/zxihtgynjg3zo7y2jrzk.jpg No matter how you hold the pen, TP fits comfortably in your hand, making it less likely to cause writing fatigue, and its satisfying texture allows you to experience the healing feeling of writing every time you hold the pen. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634791335/aaqrrbjojcxxjk68wvkv.jpg T.P. materials Every part of TP is machined from 6061 aluminum alloy, a high-strength, durable, lightweight metal with good corrosion resistance. Original Studio Xixi allows you to reflect this tangible sense of quality through these details. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634791391/lhqnovarv79mhpss0bb3.jpg https://assets.zeczec.com/asset_471149_image_big.gif?1652675447 T.P. Color selection The TP is available in 3 anodized colors: matte black, sand and dark green, with light gray contrasting laser-engraved indexes. These 3 main colors represent the elements of nature - the universe, the earth and the trees. Neutral tones bring a sense of comfort and calm, giving TP a soothing and relaxing atmosphere, a reminder that regular breaks are essential. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634791508/g5fwkgifrptaqxiqo1df.jpg T.P. 3 colors: The Universe.

We later discovered that it can also help relieve stress. Rotating/swiping TP helps me focus and relieve stress a little during breaks between studying or working, so that your mind can continue to focus on what you are working on. https://assets.zeczec.com/asset_477139_image_big.gif?1653885386 If you want more... To some, TP is just a pen. For us, TP is an artistic showcase. If you place the TP upright on your desk, consider adding a pen holder, which is also made of the same aluminum as the TP. This 10-degree tilt pen stand gives the TP the illusion of floating and an interesting imbalance. The idea came from the Leaning Tower of Pisa, an architectural landmark famous worldwide for its nearly four-degree tilt. We hope TP will become a timeless stationery series. https://c1.iggcdn.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1634791968/told8er4savybazbinpo.jpg The traceless reusable pen holder adhesive tape made of PU gel is durable, residue-free, removable and washable, leaving no trace on your desk. T.P. Refill The TP comes with my favorite refill - ZEBRA JF-0.5 Black. This refill is designed for multi-color systems; the ink flows smoothly and dries quickly. Zebra's Rapid Ink technology dries in less than a second on all common writing surfaces, producing smudge-free lines and calligraphy, perfect for lefties like me.
