Paper Shelf To Celebrate The Invention Of Paper Making

A shelf made of paper? Unexpected? Just have a look! Designer Willy Chong created Paper Shelf as a part of a project titled The Synthesis of Dual Heritage that cultivates Chong’s dual heritage, Paper is a material with roots in both Chinese and Swedish culture and history. The shelf sides consist of overlapping paper sheets to extend the shelf height and are laminated in five layers, as are all the shelves. The shelf is held together with the help of tabs passed through the back and sides of the shelf – by bending the tabs inward they secure the whole construction. What an original idea and fantastic material to use!
