Josh Owen's 8125 Calculator for Monroe, the leading producer of commercial calculators, is a robust instrument in an age of throwaway gadgets. An embodiment of the "less but better" design philosophy espoused by the godfather of industrial design, Dieter Rams, Owen designed the elegant 8125 with improved sight lines, added functionality and a 30% footprint reduction. This is an adding machine that will make even the most taciturn accountant break a smile.
