The Daisy Vase changes our casual idea about this hugely produced item into a personal and sometimes fragile experience. Made from ballpoint pens these little vases are hand blow-molded and designed by giffin’ termeer.As the plastic becomes flexible it stretches allowing the vase to sit naturally.
I’m sure you could think of some other paraphernalia to make but I’m going to stick with the vase.Recycling for the sake of design…
Un humilde bolígrafo convertido en objeto de diseño…
Imaginación de buena mañana: el humilde BIC como nunca lo habíamos visto. Calentando el canutillo del bolígrafo y soplando por un extremo se consiguen curiosas formas… como un florero para una igualmente humilde florecilla….

“A humble pen become the object of design …
Good morning imagination: the humble BIC as we had never seen. Canutillo of heating the pen tip and blowing by a curious forms are available … as a vase for a flower … equally humble.”
