Scotch Tape dispenser by Matthew Pacione
In terms of general office supplies, I can think of none more boring than Scotch Tape and Post-It Notes. Both are necessities but both also come as incredibly mundane units and they’re definitely not something I would proudly display on my desk.
But maybe that’s about to change — at least in Canada — where 3M Canada is producing 2 items created by students at The Ontario College of Art & Design. The student projects were a joint collaboration with OCAD and 3M and the winning designs shown here were awarded with $3000 cash and production in 3M’s product line. If you’re in Canada, look for these items in 2010 (maybe they’ll bring them over State-side…who knows). [via]
