Description

The 2222K Paperbook is a hand-sewn square format measuring 22 × 22 cm, made to lie flat for easy access to the full page. Its 120 GSM acid-free kraft paper brings a natural tone and subtle texture that gives sketches, drafting, and studies depth without harsh contrast. Pencil and ink read with a softer edge, making it well suited to tonal exploration and concept work. Interleaved tracing sheets protect each page in progress, and two sections keep projects distinct and easy to navigate.

Paper behaviour

120 GSM Kraft Paper

A warm-toned 120 GSM kraft paper defined by its natural character and balanced strength. The earthy brown shade runs consistently throughout the sheet, offering depth without artificial coating or surface treatment.

Made from acid-free fibres, the paper is designed to maintain its integrity over time, helping to prevent yellowing and deterioration.

The 120 GSM weight provides a stable yet flexible structure, giving the sheet a substantial feel while remaining easy to handle. A lightly textured surface adds subtle tooth, supporting clean mark definition while helping to reduce feathering and bleed-through.

Natural, durable, and structurally refined.
