About Paper Forest Decoration Sticker

Paper Forest is a decorative sticker that brings greenery to desks and other interior spaces. The design is made entirely of paper. Traditional paper cutting is reinterpreted and shaped with laser technology, giving a simple and modern appearance. No water, sunlight, fertilizer or soil is needed, so the plant form stays green over time. Each piece measures about 70 by 20 by 70 millimetres and can be applied in about five minutes. A series of accessories was developed for different settings. Production is carried out with sheltered workshops that employ people with disabilities.

Design Challenge: How to "minimal" the design is the main challenge for this project. Less but better is the main aim of the project. simplicity is key and if the idea is good, lesser elements will suffice. Minimalist design today is about reduction, unearthing a message and structuring the content. It makes effective use of blank spaces and creates a high visual impact with only the most essential elements.
We subtract unnecessary structure. We subtract any material other than paper. We subtract printing or other post-processing. We only use paper as a single material and the material itself as the structure. We also add a natural look to the paper with the laser engrave process.
