Lumin Mechanical Pencil

Lumin

Lumin is a design made 100 percent from alluminium. Without a mechanism, the elasticity of the material is used to hold the graphite. It is produced using different numerical control machining processes, with a manual finish in each one of them. Identified with its engraved serial number and accompanied by packaging that authenticates its originality. Its designer wanted to represent in Lumin the emotion of emptiness. A fragment of the brilliance that lives in each person, not perfect but authentic. In this way Lumin invites introspection and personal reflection.

Lumin Mechanical Pencil by Alexis Zapata was selected as a creative representation of industrial design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Lumin Mechanical Pencil received the Silver A' Design Award in Art and Stationery Supplies Design in 2025. The A' Art and Stationery Supplies Design Award is an international, juried, academic and meritocratic design competition that recognizes outstanding design of brushes, paints, sketchbooks, pencils, pastels, easels, canvases, markers and more.
