Noodling.

Above is the April 27/28 entry from architect Vladimir Ossipoff's 365 page journal. Each page hosts entries spanning between 1962 when Ossipoff was 54, up until he passed in 1998. Ossipoff's granddaughter, who is one of our besties shared this project with us years ago. It inspired our onnoodles project from 2010. A website, which will forever ha live in beta, where you can noodle whatever you did that day, and years later look back. Over time patterns emerge and personal rituals form.

CW got to see the real journal earlier this week for the first time and snapped this pic. <3

In our world... our studio assistant Colin is out on a well deserved holiday for the next month. Che-Wei's been shipping orders every AM. And I love him for doing it, but he's mildly dyslexic and very bad at it. If you order a Pen Type-C in the next few weeks, don't be surprised if you get an A or a B or vice versa. If you've been a victim, we'll fix it, and we're working on a better way... FUN SKUS!!! booooring.

Imaginings.

Imagining possible futures.

55 66 88 packaging.

Studio on fire in Minneapolis just sent images to peep 55 66 88 packaging fresh off the die. The feeling of working closely with folks who place so much value in their craft is unmatched.

Pre-order 55 66 88 here.

55 66 88 is at the anodizers, but right now we're trying to figure out how to receive them without a loading dock. Our aluminum manufacturers in CT are reasonably spooked by letting us unload them by hand off the truck. Worse case scenario we rent a truck and drive 5 hours to get them when they are ready.

With love and hugs,

Che-Wei + Taylor

P.S. Thanks to all who sent us TSL pics over the past few weeks. We sent $100 gift cards to a random selection and really appreciate the shares. If you still want to send us please do, it's not too late. Thank you!!!
