Carrying real paper documents these days seems hopelessly old-fashioned, but there are times when nothing else will do. Sending someone a resume doesn’t need a stamp, but when you are sitting in a job interview, I’m not sure that handing out flash drives to all the participants is the way to go. So in the hopes that someone, somewhere still carries paper and wants to make a statement at the same time, I’ve designed some portfolios that fit standard 8.5×11 letter paper.
I posted the prototype a few weeks ago and last week I made the first batch. I forgot to photograph them before I put on their shiny packaging, so please excuse the shiny spots! Here they all are:
The outside paper and the side strips are all my hand-marbled paper, but I found that using marbled paper on the inside also was just too much, so I’ve used commercial, printed papers there.
