‘Papier’ is a collection of bags made of paper. Yes, let me repeat; paper! The designers behind it is a married couple from Germany, Stefan Diez, furniture designer, and Saskia Diez who makes beautiful jewellery. When making their collection they began with pointing out the basic requirements of a travel bag – durability, protection and light weight – and sought for an appropriate material other than the traditional choices of leather and reinforced textiles. They found Tyvek®, a synthetic paper that is super light but at the same time extremely robust. In addition it’s also waterproof, tearproof and 100% recyclable. Boy, do I want one!
