The Design

About Paper Forest Dekorativna Nalepnica

Paper Forest je dekorativna nalepnica koja unosi zelenilo na radne stolove i druge enterijerske prostore. Dizajn je u potpunosti izrađen od papira. Tradicionalno sečenje papira je reinterpretirano i oblikovano laserskom tehnologijom, što mu daje jednostavan i moderan izgled. Nije potrebna voda, sunčeva svetlost, đubrivo niti zemlja, tako da oblik biljke ostaje zelen tokom vremena. Svaki komad meri oko 70 sa 20 sa 70 milimetara i može se postaviti za oko pet minuta. Razvijena je serija dodataka za različita okruženja. Proizvodnja se odvija u zaštićenim radionicama koje zapošljavaju osobe sa invaliditetom.

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.
