Stefan Diez's PAPIER bag series for AUTHENTICS are one of the more elegant use's of Tyvek we've seen in a while.
The idea for PAPIER came whilst considering the development of travel accessories for the extremely successful KUVERT bag series, which was also designed by Stefan Diez. Initial trials with various materials were not so successful, as they were not light or flexible enough. Which led to the idea of turning the actual paper prototypes into new products - but using strong, wear-resistant Tyvek, which look so much like paper, instead of paper.
The PAPIER bag series will be available in January 2009.
