It’s obvious why paper still excites us. It’s real-world, 3-d, touchable, holdable, sniffable. A personal, sensory experience. n o e l ly on s , k e n t ly on s

At Warehouse Home, we are passionate about exceptional design and supporting talented designer-makers. We also feel strongly about recycling and sustainability. While a printed publication is at the heart of our business, it is published on 100% recycled paper stock. And we have devised a unique way of dealing with damaged or ‘waste’ copies. Warehouse Home Issue One became pendant lamps, Issue Two was transformed into wall and table clocks. This year, identifying recycled paper and paper-based designs as a key interiors trend, we commissioned seven talented designers to each rework small batches of Warehouse Home Issue Three. These one-off pieces are available exclusively to purchase through mywarehousehome.com/shop

PAPER CHAISE

Maria’s studio Crea-re takes its name from ‘creativity’ and ‘recycling’. The shape of this Quartz lamp was directly inspired by geological forms, with an angular pulp paper shade and matching ceiling rose.

Liverpool based furniture and product designer Dan Hoolahan glued together dozens of pages of Warehouse Home. Once dry, the solid material was sawn, drilled and milled to form small vessels.

Product designer Laura Nelson carefully folded individual pages of Warehouse Home, before securing the fanned out pages with a custom-made fitting to create a simple and pretty light shade.

Berlin studio Hettler Tüllmann created the Paper Knitted Chair (above, top) by slowly turning and twirling thin paper layers into delicate yet resilient ropes, which were then carefully knitted by hand around a blue metal chair frame. The Paper Rope Chair (above) was also crafted from 100% recycled paper ropes. But for this design, the paper ropes were woven around a rattan structure, using the traditional tools and techniques of wicker craftsmanship. The blue weaving thread used in the Paper Rope Chair complements the natural tones of the recycled paper ropes. Made to order, prices on request, hettlertullmann.com
