Graffica Paper
For the special issue of Graffica magazine, focusing on the various types of paper available on the creative market, we designed a cover celebrating the main material: paper. Our idea was to create a cover where the very materiality of the paper would convey the message, using only a dry stroke, without ink, to reproduce the word "PAPER".

The design is based on the play of reliefs and shadows, making the title visible only through the interaction of light with the surface, highlighting the subtlety and expressive possibilities of paper as a medium. This minimalist and experimental approach makes the material the sole visual narrator of the cover, reinforcing the central concept of the issue.
Before arriving at this final solution, we explored multiple ideas, including pop-ups, die-cuts and other reliefs, always prioritising paper as the central element of the design. The final result not only stands out for its elegance, but also invites us to reflect on the versatility and creative potential of paper in contemporary design.
