Let's build a minibook through a thoughtful use of multiple folds made by hand with a single sheet of paper and decorate it, taking inspiration from the works present in Arnaldo Pomodoro's Studio. We can leaf through it page by page once folded or keep it open like a small poster: so much magic between our fingers...
