Stilfold and PaperShell joined forces to see how far the boundaries of design and technology could be pushed in the “Hacking of Wood, Steel, and Origami” exhibition. A paper-metal fusion where tradition meets innovation. It showed how STILFOLD’s advanced origami software and folding technique could be combined with PaperShell’s innovative load-bearing cellulose composite.
The exhibition took place August 22nd – 29th at Nacka Strand, Augustendalsvägen 64.
STILFOLD, the origami-based design and technology company, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with PaperShell, pioneers in sustainable paper-based composite materials. This alliance is not only a significant step forward for both companies but also a call to colleagues in design, architecture, materials, and industry to disrupt the status quo and accelerate the green transition.
Combining STILFOLD’s advanced origami software with PaperShell’s innovative load-bearing cellulose composites opens new possibilities for creating revolutionary solutions and products. Together, the companies will explore new frontiers in material efficiency and manufacturing techniques, enabling the production of everything from sustainable façade panels to groundbreaking design objects for both indoor and outdoor use, as well as new lightweight structures in automotive, mobility, and infrastructure sectors.
“This partnership gives us a unique opportunity to further develop our technology and production capacity. By integrating PaperShell’s groundbreaking composite materials into our software, we can create products that are not only sustainable and strong but also aesthetically pleasing.”
Jonas Nyvang, CEO & co-founder of STILFOLD.
