"We've all seen the culturally impactful video clip of a pencil floating within a spaceship from Stanley Kubrick's seminal film 2001: A Space Odyssey, dramatically scored to Austrian composer Johann Strauss II's The Blue Danube Waltz. The seemingly mundane device takes on grander attribution as it signifies a different place in time and place. Embodying that same sense of awe and novelty, the Novium Hoverpen Interstellar turns the seemingly tangible fantasy real and with technology that isn't particularly nascent."
"Crafted using aerospace-grade aluminum for a truly streamlined form and tactile condition, the device tilts at a precise 23.5° angle. A semi-enclosed ring pedestal, rendered in the same material but with just the right amount of magnetic repulsion, holds the utensil in a perfectly aligned state of suspension. Like the famous scene from Kubrick's masterpiece, this usually overlooked and often overly accumulated item becomes a more explicit statement piece adorning one's desk."
Novium Hoverpen Interstellar is crafted from aerospace-grade aluminum and tilts at a precise 23.5°. A semi-enclosed ring pedestal uses calibrated magnetic repulsion to hold the utensil in perfect suspension. The device functions as an interactive kinetic sculpture, gliding for up to 20 seconds with a gentle twist of its tip. The levitating pen transforms a mundane object into a statement piece that inspires more thoughtful, deliberate use—whether jotting lists, signing checks, journaling, or sketching expansive concepts. The repetitive motion provides a brief stress-relief ritual that re-grounds attention and promotes renewed focus. Ergonomics are also considered; the comfort of touch is described as adaptable to widely varying proportions.
