Category Self-initiated Hand Made Object

Year 2008

Design Paul the Bookscreen

Judge’s comments “Paul the Bookscreen stands out for its design simplicity and elegance. As a hand made object it embodies a fascination with craftsmanship and construction while providing a wide range of functional applications. The symbolism of thrift or reuse that it evokes sits comfortably alongside its bold and adaptive use of colour. This is a visually arresting, well-considered project with a thoughtful approach to making.”
