Multiple formats: intervening steps & invitations into space was a prompt-based program for participants to examine the relationships between physical and graphic space, using only the paper found within the Doosung Paper’s warehouse, the location of the workshop, and the final exhibition.

Doosungpaper.com asserts that “Paper is, in itself, civilization and culture, it is a tool,” and “a play space for paper.” Keeping this in mind, the participants were provided with tools and encouraged to play within the warehouse, using standardized paper sizes as ‘bricks’ to build new graphic spaces. They worked collaboratively to examine the components, intended audience, potential uses, and what the space had to offer.
