Lamy Studio Press Release
by Lamy
The official press release with added photos of the new Lamy Studio.
Work of art: the new LAMY studio.
Art, Oscar Wilde once wrote, is the highest form of individualism. If that is still true today, then the new LAMY studio is exactly the right pen for anyone who likes to look at things a little differently from everybody else.
Does a clip always have to look like a clip? It was with questions like this that Swiss designer Hannes Wettstein began to wrestle when Lamy gave him the task of designing a new writing instrument.
And without any respect for the status quo, he proceeded to design the clip of the LAMY studio: an elegantly turned object which, without lacking any functionality, has nothing in common with normal pen clips at all. It is reminiscent instead of modern sculpture – by Constantin Brancusi for example, or Max Bill.
Other striking design features such as the chrome-plated cap-end make the LAMY studio the perfect eye-catcher, pleasantly refusing to fit into any mould whatsoever. And when you pick it up you find out just how well it writes too. Its large diameter makes it wonderfully comfortable to hold.
The new LAMY studio is available as a rotating ballpoint or steel-nibbed fountain pen, with a matt steel finish or soft-varnish. For the more demanding it is also available with a fine palladium finish, and a rhodium-plated 14 ct gold nib instead of the steel nib. And all that at a price so reasonable, it too almost seems like a work of art.
