2010 NYIGF Faves: Acme Studios' graphically bold objects add pop to your purse (or murse)

To commemorate their 25th anniversary and add some serious pop to ordinarily bland objects, Hawaii-based Acme Studios enlisted the services of industrial designer Arik Levy and fashion designer Sue Wong. Wong's "Talmadge I" collection (above) encompasses a rollerball pen, eyeglass case, and business card holder, while Levy's "Honeycomb" series (below) adds a moneyclip to the lineup.

Acme's also got an extensive rollerball line-up designed by Eva Zeisel, Ettore Sottsass and others, and while they don't have the eco-credentials of the DBA Pen, the eye-catching graphics ensure you'll notice if one of these disappears from your desk and winds up on a co-worker's.
