Product Description

Product Description
"Paper Engineering" explores graphic design that extends beyond 2D. From the simplest fold in a letterhead to the structural intricacies of a pop-up book, the construction of 3D paper objects requires as much input as the surface decoration. This stylish and inspirational book unfolds the conceptual complexities of paper engineering, studying the techniques of eminent designers in Europe, Japan and the USA. Case studies are illustrated with photographs of finished work, as well as detailed diagrams and commentary. "Paper Engineering" also explores the functions of paper architecture in graphic design, ranging from pop-up books, invitations and point-of-sale to packaging.

About the Author
Natalie Avella is a prolific design writer who has worked for Village Voice and Graphics International in New York. The author of Graphic Japan for RotoVision, she lives in London, UK.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully Inspirational, 10 Mar 2006
This is a wonderfully inspirational book for anyone interested in working with paper. Lots of 2D and 3D examples are given, and a couple of great interviews with masters of this craft enhance the enjoyment. 99% of the time I work with paper in a one-dimensional way but this book has really opened my eyes to the almost limitless possibilities of enhancing a design piece in a very interesting and visually satisfying way. This is probably the best £20 I've spent in my working life.

By Debra Yates "loukabooga" (Belper, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I GOT THIS FOR CHRISTMAS AND LOVE IT!
IT'S BEAUTIFULLY LAYED OUT, WITH UP TO DATE CONTEMPORY IMAGES TO REALLY INSPIRE.
AS A GRAPHIC DESIGN STUDENT, THIS BOOK WILL CERTAINLY GIVE ME A HEAD START OVER MY FELLOW STUDENTS. I'VE JUST FINISHED A PARKOUR BROCHURE PROJECT, I COULD REALLY HAVE USED THIS BOOK TO GIVE ME SOME IDEAS. I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL MY NEXT BRIEF!!
