Design Duo Zim & Zou Pull a Paper Caper

By on October 5, 2011 in Art & Design

If Saved by the Bell and paper sculpture had a love child, I’m 99.99% sure it would look like the incredible creations in French duo Zim & Zou’s Back to Basics project. Spitting puff paint hues, the imitation, old school electronics in Back to Basics are made purely of paper — and eco-friendly PEFC paper at that! But what really puts the  awe in awesome is the fact that this deft duo crafts every piece — down to the most diminutive detail — from hand.

I’m impressed; who’s with me?

About Hannah

"Q: Where do cantaloupes go for the summer? A: John Cougar Mellon Camp!" From that joke you can surmise a few things about Hannah -- she loves a good pun, she delights in irreverence, and red peppers are her vegetable of choice. How does one figure out Hannah loves red peppers from that joke? Hmm, that's top secret. Hannah also adores outdoor activities, arts & crafts, reading, and being abroad.
