Finding Simplicity: Thisispaper Shop Launch

"Simplicity is king in everything we do." - Thisispaper

The crew behind Thisispaper Magzine is proud to bring to you their latest project, Thisispaper Shop. After running a magazine for almost two years they felt the need to expand and step from the digital into the analog world. Why be satisfied with showing beautiful things when you can make them, too.

It started in late 2012. First, a vague idea, then it began to crystalize, and by the time winter returned they seriously got down to work. They launched Thisispaper Shop to make a statement. We disagree with mass production and consumptionism, with the relentless quest for new products that satisfy artificially created needs.

They'd much rather go back to basics, own just a few items, made and handled with care. No everyday item is too dull or too unglamorous to be carefully designed, handcrafted and loved. They believe that beauty lies in the simple objects we use everyday, without even acknowledging it. They pay attention to these little things and to how they’re made. All products in the shop are hand- made by them in the studio or sourced from environment-savvy suppliers. The Earth suffers no harm.

線上雜誌平台Thisispaper的幕後團隊在經營網站兩年後,也渴望以實際生產來實踐他們的生活美學原則——日常中簡樸的美好。自2012年想法開始發酵,其中的過程不乏親自尋找材料與研究做法,只是為了堅持保持事物最簡單的樣子。商店中所有挑選販售的物品皆為工作團隊手工製造、或是來自當地環境友善的產品供應商,他們希望可以傳達出這樣的訊息:平凡微小的事物中皆能發現生活的美好,人並不需要過度追求流行與浮誇的物質。
