Nowadays, digitalization and information and communication technology have been progressing rapidly. On the other hand, Ancora focuses on the revival of analog in-person communication.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The brand follows the basic rituals of writing: filling the pen with ink, scribbling to test it before writing, etc. Using a “for everybody” design, also unites the simplicity of the form with the complexity of customization. The symbol mark shows a handwritten line from the tip of a fountain pen (as a scribble) with an ”A” in the center which is the initial letter of the brand name. The graphic design expresses colorful ink drops and handwritten lines written by the pen. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: As a gift, a fountain pen is not just perfect but also provides a story on its own. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The store opened in March 2020. Located in Tokyo, Japan. FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Graphics, Illustration and Visual Communication Design |
