Review of the paper used: 

This is a wonderful twist box designed by Anine Cleve Christensen.
What makes it so special? By twisting the lid, the box opens, revealing that box and lid are folded from a single sheet. When folded from duo paper the lid also has a different color than the box. Pretty awesome!

Paper: 19cm by 15cm rectangle of Elephant Hide, 190gsm, painted copper/bronze with Acrylic paint
Model: 3.8cm wide, 3.8cm deep, 4.0cm high

Comments

We'll see, depends on what Anine says to my proposal. I did send her an email a couple of days ago.

It is a great box, but it has already been invented years ago by Spanish folder Ángel Écija, great creator of clever/action models. I know that diagrams have been published in at least two publications (a special AEP mag and a 2010 book by V.Palacios).

Great ideas use to be simple and independent re-inventions usually happen ;-)

By the way: I love the metallic aspect of the paper you used: the acrylic paint over elephant hide looks great.
