dewa bleisinger: inukshuk
‘inukshuk’ as a paper holder
berlin-based designer dewa bleisinger has created ‘inukshuk’ a multi-functional office device for german company troika. inukshuks are stone figures / landmarks built by the inuit as a navigational point of reference. bleisinger has designed table top versions of inukshuks which have integrated magnets, enabling users to arrange the stones according to their needs – functioning as a paperclip or photo holder, or an anti-stress device for your hands. ‘inukshuk’ allows you to create your own desktop sculpture while maintaining an organized workspace. embedded magnets allow you to hold papers in place

using the word inukshuk, a Canadian cultural icon, for this product is quite insulting
Why?
Comments like that are offensive, get off your high-horse! I like this!
very very nice. considering the amount of junk on my desk I might need a whole mountain of rocks though lol
I am a Canadian and do not find this insulting.
I think it’s great to see how people are influenced by other cultures for design ideas and solutions. A nice, practical project.
I am a Canadian too and I agree with Vicky. Think this is a great idea and I wish I have some with me here in Hong Kong!
Do you know where these are for sale?
