Russian product designers (owners of the first national web magazine about ID – Designet.ru) Alexander Matveyev and Vladimir Samoylov took RedDot Design Award 2010 for their R-series stapler and puncher for Erich Krause.
The R-series has been designed to provide maximum comfort and stability while remaining lightweight. The recyclable ABS- and EVA-moulded body is fitted over a lightened steel frame, saving material and providing extra strength without adding weight. All moving parts are concealed and the coating prevents fingers from being jammed. Stapler was designed to fit the hand in a most natural way, and its ergonomic shape was developed to provide maximum grip. The non-slippery base of puncher and integrated ruler allow for precise effortless work with documents.
A two-tone styling finishes the look, giving the R-series a design that fits both upmarket and basic work environments. The R-series was created in 2006 and launched to production by Erich Krause in 2008.
