Description[edit]
The ADA pen is a product from Italian design firm, BLALAB!, and is a capless, click, magnetic-enclosure pen. The pen has a multi-faceted body that was based on a hexagon design inspired by crystal structures, and purposefully deformed to give a variety of facet alignments through the whole barrel. This is reported to help writers grip the pen comfortably, no matter the grip style. The internal magnetic enclosure also allows the pen to stick to metal surfaces for interesting storage solutions.
The pen accepts Parker G2-styled refills, and the aluminum barrel is offered in a variety of anodyzation colors.[1].
Despite a strong first day of raising €3,000[2], the campaign still fell short of the goal by €10,000 by the deadline.
