The Pad is finally here

The first few hundred copies neatly packed in brown paper. When we unwraped the first pack, it came as a shock to see a real whopper. No one ever expected it to be that big – a fat, A4 size volume of paper magic! Sizeable yet suprisingly light, humble and unique at the same time, practical yet irrationaly beautiful. It’s a sensuous feat – the stark colours on the cover against the subdued shades of white and grey inside, the velvety paper which smells of nature and hard labour, and the crackle it gives when you bend it. Students just love it.
You don’t have to bring it to your class. – we say.
We want to show it off. – they answer.
If you’ve got it, flaunt it.
You simply have to own two pads, one to use, the other to keep and look at.
Back to basics on paper
