When is a shopping bag not just a bag? When it is a clever nod to an iconic Louis Vuitton quilted bag, made entirely from paper! This exquisite design for retail recreates the archetypal quilted finish seen on the brands finest leather bags, using a blind embossing technique to create surface detail by pressing form into paper. The result is a a retail bag almost as desirable as the product itself.
Enhanced by the gleaming copper logos created using hot foil stamping, the effect is quintessentially Louis Vuitton. The technical detail is easily overlooked however, as the quilted surface and the foiled logo are uneasy companions, requiring a delicate balance to create this pristine and precise result.
