Natalie Avella

This fascinating book reveals that paper can be so much more than a flat surface on which to display text and images. Featuring work by some of the worlds most innovative graphic designers, Paper Engineering, now available as a revised and extended edition, explores the numerous possibilities of paper, from the simplest die-cut to the most complicated fold. It shows paper at its most surprising and interactive, and designers at their most creative. Divided into two broad sections covering cutting and folding techniques, the book also features interviews with some of the world''s leading paper engineers, Ron van der Meer, Kate Farley, Ed Hutchins, and Rob Ryan. Their work demonstrates just how far paper can be pushed, revealing it as an essential design element in it''s own right.
