Italian company WOOD-SKIN has introduced a new collection: Fold Panels. Using sustainable materials and simple design, Fold Panels want to help you create a comfortable atmosphere within any space. Three-dimensional surfaces reminiscent of architecture, create a refined aesthetic that’s functional and easy to assemble.

WOOD-SKIN’s Fold Panels show appreciation for Mother Nature’s harmony through forms that create light and shadow. The collection also finds influences in Buddhist principles, Japanese aesthetics and wabi-sabi. Its philosophy goes beyond poetry and art to origami. The more recent Ullagami technique employs cuts and uses paper sheets in their entirety to create a zero-waste production. The clean folds, geometrical modules and sharp incisions of the art translate well to the modular units of the Fold Panels.
The multiple units of the Fold Panels can be entirely customized, from the finishing materials to configuration. Installation is easy – after securing the vanishing supporting frame on a wall, the panels can be installed quickly without assistance.
