Description

Water is normally bad news for paper. However, when it absorbs water, the paper’s inner structure is reinforced. The water interferes with and rearranges the flat network of paper fibres.

Wrinkles unleash paper’s ability to style and shape. It turns an ordinary piece of paper into a material with extraordinary capabilities and a unique aesthetic quality
