A collaboration with Sirkka Hammer

A wallpaper consisting of four layers of varying grey tones on a bright primary backing. Each layer is perforated in a grid format and backed with a tacky adhesive similar to ‘post-it’ notes. Pixelnotes is inspired by the way we work within a space. The walls become functional, an integrated noticeboard that documents our activity within the room. Pixelated formations and shapes develop according to our patterns of use.

Winner: 2nd Prize, ‘New Walls, Please!’ competition. January 2004

Minnesotan architect, Jeff Montague, recently submitted images of his prototype called the Storage Paper, made in collaboration with  Minneapolis-based HouMinn Practice. Storage Paper consists of a module of fissured fabric pockets that works as a wallpaper when it’s flat. As a storage device, the pockets bulge and expand when objects are stuffed within.

Designer’s statement: Storage Paper operates somewhere between wallpaper, storage and the modern living environment. The project interrogates each entities capacity to affect and be affected upon by users with various behavioral capacities (i.e. a young child’s ability to engage and act upon the material properties with an environment is very different than a mature adult)
