The Common Spectacle is a lifestyle brand grown out of the celebration of commonplace tools. The attitude and sensibilities that shape the identity of this brand derive from a passion for the beauty and spectacular nature of common place tools. The first collection released from The Common Spectacle is a celebration of the yellow no. 2 pencil. Offering a variety of limited edition products from custom made pencils packaged in cedar pencil boxes, to silkscreened t-shirts, prints, vinyl wall
graphics, amongst other accessories, The Common Spectacle is on a mission to change the way people perceive the “mundane”, and awaken their curiousity of the functional and cultural treasures that are right in front of us.
