repurposing second-hand books
by using paper folding techniques,
a kind of origami
where scissors or glue are not needed
to achieve the various shapes.
These books, discarded by many
are rescued from street markets
and by a re-interpretation of the material
as a new design medium,
they are endowed with a new life.
After carefully folding the book pages one by one,
the necessary volume is obtained
for the various words or figures to come to life
and appear to spring out from inside the books.
Folded Books are flexible,
and they can be open or close
to achieve the various shapes.

Folded Books are flexible,
and they can be open or close

All books are hardcover
and they are in perfect structural condition
to ensure they are stable and stand upright.
FOLDED BOOK ART transform books
into a work of art to decorate your home.
They are not recommended for reading
since the manipulation of the folds
can lead to deformation of the piece.
They are a unique and original gift,
and can also be customized on request.
