ACME: "When sampling the "Ronchamp" architect's pencil by Le Corbusier we weren't sure whether a gloss chrome or matte silver finish would be better. We ended up choosing the matte silver for the pencil as the etched design was more visible in the matte silver design. In the shiny chrome version, the etched artwork was easily obscured in the reflection."

About ACME: The ACME Studios was founded by Adrian Olabuenaga and his wife Lesley Bailey in 1985. The company has collaborated with well know artists, musicians and architects producing lines of pens, and art.
