Exhibitions | TAKEO PAPER SHOW 2018 - precision

TAKEO’s 48th paper show, takeo paper show 2018, presented the company’s vision for new fine paper through the theme of “precision.”
Fine paper, with its implication of elegance, refinement, and superb quality, is a material that possesses “precision”—accuracy and meticulousness—as well as appealing to the senses. This exhibition took a fresh look at the role of paper from the ground up, evolving diverse genres of paper materials into fine materials to open up the future of paper. TAKEO asked creatives working actively in Japan and around the world in fields such as architecture, product design, graphic design, and textile design to supervise the creation of new fine papers from the standpoint of “precision.” The papers they produced were exhibited together with their works.
