Acme
Acme Studio was founded in Los Angeles in 1985, by
Adrian Olabuenaga and his wife, Lesley Bailey. Many
of their first jewelry pieces are now in the
permanent collections of many museums around the
world, such as the Denver Art Museum, Brooklyn
Museum of Art, Frankfurt Museum of Decorative Arts
and others, and the entire series is in the
collection of the Groninger Museum in Holland.
After relocating to Maui, Hawaii in 1988, ACME
developed different products like wrist watches,
personal accessories, leather goods, etc. In recent
years, ACME has consistently created new collections
and focused its attention on the development of new
technologies and using a new design philosophy to
produce writing tools, (ACME was the first company
to do printed pens, starting a revolution in the pen
industry), resulting in endless new possibilities
for designs in this area. This focus into writing
tools has fundamentally changed the company and
helped to make it into an international brand.
So, in short, Acme stands for real design created by
the world´s most talented designers. With an ACME
writing tool or accessory you will certainly capture
anyone´s attention!
