About this episode

Raymond Yu discusses the artistry and innovation behind Ferris Wheel Press and its impact on the stationery world.

Every paper nerd needs a quality pen for their prized stationery — and Ferris Wheel Press aims to elevate the world of writing tools as it demands. Raymond Yu actually started out in stationery, creating one-of-a-kind, ultra-luxe invitations — but turned his talents to fountain pens and accessories, aiming to remove the intimidation factor and "make fancy fun." Ferris Wheel Press' ever-expanding array of offerings encompasses both its own creations as well as licensed product tied to major properties — think Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Batman, Superman. Every last creation invites users to immerse themselves in a fantastic world where every last detail has been carefully considered and tweaked to near perfection. The results don't just heighten the writing experience — Ray shared that many of Ferris Wheel Press' customers actually write more as they seek opportunities to write stuff down! Whatever role you play in stationery, Ray's perspective — to say nothing of Ferris Wheel Press' artistry! — will inspire you to examine our medium's potential with fresh eyes.
