Paper Paste Living

Paper Paste Living
Cover image missing

The philosophy of Paper Paste Living is to create beautiful and functional home items in circular materials. The core material is a mixture of compressed recycled paper and water without any binders. The paper paste part of the objects are handcrafted in Spain, while all the wood and cardboard are sourced in the Czech Republic. With the Shape of Nature in mind, the products are carefully designed in Denmark by Hans Thyge & Co. The paper used arrived from a KM0 recovery plant near the over 100-year-old production facility just outside of Barcelona. Other materials besides paper are also used, like FSC-certified. For the pouf seat, Italian regenerated cotton in Ivory was used, and it gets its softness from the coconut fibres inside.

During 3daysofdesign, Paper Paste Living will showcase a brand new concept of customising with paint and patterns on the products. They will also present new products, including a paper bin made of paper as well as a different kind of cellulose material. See anything from colourful lampshades, furniture and eye-catching decor.

Kilzi means many things to its founder: it is his family name, weird in his context and a symbol of other lands, Kilzi is the family context and a story of immigration and personal growth, it also means ancient history and heritage, movement, renewal, childhood. In Jorge S Kilzi's eyes, his creations are an expression of who he is and of where his many experiences have taken him. Kilzi's work is honest and seeks to create emotional value. Some items find their worth in practicality, technology, comfort or decorations: Kilzi doesn't refuse any of the previous but seeks value in human connection through objects. This year Kilzi will host one event and be part of two collaborative shows.

David Valner has a background in glass design, sculpture, fine arts, and interactive media. David has grown up in a glassmaker family, in the midst of a swarm of traditional artisans–glass lovers, feeling and watching  the physical and metaphorical fire of creation. At the centre of his current approach to glass stands respect for the material as an originally free and fluid mass. Endlessly inspired by nature, he creates collections of objects in which each item is an original and defects are embraced as deeply meaningful and inspirational testimonies to artisan glass making as opposed to mass production.
