Young Mexican designer and Central Saint Martins, Domus Academy, and Parsons graduate Jorge Diego Etienne has recently developed a design which reinforces the age-old adage that the pen is mightier than the sword.
Or in this case, the gun.
"'Choose Your Bullets' is a desk accessory that empowers our thoughts and gives us the opportunity to shoot positive ideas." says Jorge.
"The project responds to the current situation in Mexico, where violence seems to have taken over our life".
The design reflects upon how a society can respond to corruption, violence and bad decisions; encouraging a positive change by believing that each one of us can make a difference.
Each piece is unique, numbered and crafted in a solid chunk of aluminum by industrial artisans in Monterrey, Mexico.
Choose Your Bullets is currently on sale in design stores throughout Mexico, but if you're elsewhere in the world, you can buy online at Uncommongoods.com
"No matter what you do, you should always shoot for good", says Jorge.
We couldn't agree more.
