The Tentacle Coin Bank is a stylish piggy bank by Hoi Ng that has been designed as a modern alternative to traditional currency containers to make them more applicable for older consumers instead of just children.
The bank is inspired by the look and feel of an urchin, and has been achieved through two CAD modeling commands including Extend and Repeat. This speaks to the metaphorical aspects of currency as a whole, which makes the user of the bank think more deeply about how they relate to money and its use.
The Tentacle Coin Bank sports a decorative design that makes it highly applicable for placement on a desk or in a modern home to ensure every dollar is accounted for.
