A conceptual design project reflecting on the human need to leave a mark. An off-the-shelf hammer has been altered by means of electro-erosion (EDM), its steel hammering head has been reshaped into a heart, it has been marked. At the same time, it has also been transformed into a tool for leaving a mark. Anything struck by the hammer will now have a signature heart-shape indented on it; be it a tree, wall, or hood of an ex-lover’s car. The hammer is a tool for constructing but it can also destroy.
