It may seem like you have a healthy growing plant on your desk, but it could be a pot of Pooleaf pens. These 0.5mm ball point pens by South Korean design studio Zeup resemble blades of grass. Available in three shades of green, Pooleaf pens make for an organic sight when piled together in a pot.
Made of smooth silicone, each Pooleaf pen is flexible and sleek. The design is unique because it focuses on the aesthetics of pens, as well as the aesthetics of a room when these pens are displayed on a desk. Keeping in mind the bigger picture of one's work space, Zeup Design Studio transforms a mundane stationery object into something that would infuse a bit of nature into a room.
Consumers may be confused with the product's name Pooleaf, but it is actually a play on words since 'pool' means grass in Korean.
