Rotterdam-based design studio SNIJLAB has introduced a series of Booklets fabricated entirely from wood. Produced from a single sheet of birch plywood, a series of small laser-cut holes allows for the cover to hinge with complete flexibility, while another wooden piece clamps an A7 format notebook inside. Slits on the back cover allow for a band to be easily slipped in and around the cover to keep the notebook shut. SNIJLAB says this simple but effective fabrication method will greatly reduce the resources spent and used on shipping; since the laser cutter is a standard tool in the design industry, these Booklets can be spread digitally and manufactured locally as needed. The Booklets are available in both portrait or landscape format through the SNIJLAB online store for approximately $34.00 USD.
