Raw Pencil
A single pleated PLA+ print that channels pencils, pens and rulers with zero desk clutter.
Some desk organisers hide the process. This one puts it on show. The Raw Pencil and Pen Tray is a single pleated print, five sharp ridges rising and falling in one continuous zigzag, with every V-shaped groove sized to cradle a pencil, pen or slim ruler on its own.
The name is not decorative. Raw is the finish: no sanding, no paint, just the exposed layer lines you get when a part is printed standing on its side. Designer Martin Žampach built the whole shape around that constraint, using the technique's fast, support-free strengths to turn a manufacturing limitation into the look of the piece.
Drop a pencil in one channel, a pen in the next, a ruler along the back, and your desk goes from tangled to lined up in seconds. The tray sits flat on its own, no clips or stands needed, and pairs neatly with the matching card and phone stands from the same raw-finish desk range.
Printed in PLA+ for a clean, true-to-file surface that lets those ridges read crisp instead of fuzzy. Made to order in a choice of colours, ready in a day or two.
