PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Pelcraft’s products are made from reclaimed paper because of its light-weight and handy characters, thus installation and removal work is simple and flexible. We only need to put a 3M sticker to fix when install and remove them without marking or damaging the wall. We hope this product will enable the users to enjoy the process of design to puzzle installation by themselves, it will transform to a wall feature or an artwork for appreciation when it has been hung on wall.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: There are 8 types of module with extensive range of colours and 2 sizes of module for your creation, 50mm x 50mm and 100mm x 100mm. In the near future we will keep working on different light-weight materials to offer more choices for your selection. When you use the platform of Pelcraft to create your own artwork, it can be shared to your friends or family through this web or app. During this creation process you can save your works as you create them on your own account as you might take time to complete them.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Designing of wall features within the interior design industry has always been topic of conversation in a serious way, especially to be designed by interior designers or decorators. It is not a simple or easy thing in terms of materials and time control during the design process as well as the complexity, installation or removal work that must be done by contractors or decorators. Therefore, our concept of Pelcraft is entirely inspired by the above factors from complex to simple.
CHALLENGE: The challenge is the used of materials, every module of Pelcraft has to be light-weight, eco-friendly and safe. As the design purpose of Pelcraft is for ordinary people to design and install, also an interactive activity especially for family and friends.
