Birch Ply Notebooks

SNIJLAB, a Dutch design studio based in Rotterdam, has introduced a series of booklets fabricated entirely from wood. Cut from a single sheet of birch plywood, a clever array of laser-cut perforations allows for the cover to hinge with complete flexibility, while another wooden piece clamps an A7 format notebook inside. A series of slits on the back cover allows for a band to be slipped in and around the cover, keeping the notebook shut.

What fun one could have! The sculptor in me can hardly control himself.

Check it: Dutch digital-manufacturing company Snijlab has created an altogether new type of material: folding wood, which can bend back and forth without snapping.
