Wonjun Jo draws inspiration from the function and modular performance of subway lines with the new LINE highlighter series. The design notes that many different countries have different train systems that function respective to their own system.
Many of these are color-coded to indicate the travel of each train and this is translated to the highlighters as well. The highlighter itself is also shaped like a train with a front car as the cap and a rectangular block as the rest of the body. It comes in removable segments in different colors that look like its own train carts. These are modular and can be changed around and altered as one pleases. Notably, these can also be filled again or the tips can be replaced if needed.
