Studio Job - Paper Patchwork

Studio Job was founded in 1998 by Job Smeets in the renaissance spirit, combining traditional and modern techniques to produce once-in-a-lifetime objects. At once highly specific and yet entirely universal, personally expressive and yet experimental, Studio Job has crafted a body of work that draws upon classical, popular and contemporary design and highly visual and sculptural art.

Papier-mâché is very familiar to all of us, it brings back memories of childhood playing with glue and paper, one of our first experiences of making things.

paper patchwork for moooi

The set of robust furniture by Studio Job for Moooi is made completely from a patchwork of paper, as its name implies. Honeycomb panels, paper and cardboard is combined to form a durable composite employed in the construction of the storage, lighting and table pieces. The ‘paper patchwork’ collection is a continuation of the dutch-belgian duo’s exploration into utilizing the fibrous material for more hearty, structural purposes, as seen in their first iteration ‘paper collection’, which was produced from a mixture of paper, wood and PU lacquer.
