Design – Meet the Maker

Pavo Screen by BCXSY

 

Henrietta loves this… because at a time when we're surrounded by digital screens everywhere we go, this huge paper space-dividing one is refreshingly straightforward and lo-fi. Pavo is a beautiful space divider, designed by BCXSY for Grafisch Atelier Daglicht, de Krabbedans and CBK Rotterdam. Based in Eindhoven, BCXSY is a partnership between Boaz Cohen and Sayaka Yamamoto. The brief was to explore the possibilities of large-scale manual printing techniques for a project called 'Groot Grafiek' (big graphics).

Both the paper and the adjustable wooden-feet are silk-screen printed with a lined-pattern, originally hand-drawn with felt-markers, and the folding lines are embossed using blind-print technique. Concertina folded as a fan, the graphic warps to intriguing optical effect. Only available in a limited edition of six per colour, fans need to act quickly to snap one up - because this is a great divide if ever there was.
