Zim and Zou: Paper Sculptures
Zim and Zou is a graphic design studio based in Nancy, France. It's a team of graphic designers Lucie Thomas and Thibault Zimmermann who completed a BTS in Visual Communication before joining forces and offer their expertise. They work in different areas such as paper sculptures, installations, graphic design and illustration.
I am amazed by their extraordinary and intricate paper sculptures created using only high quality paper, knife and glue. When I saw the top image, the first word that came to my mind was 'owl'. It's a beautiful paper sculpture titled "Chef Mask" but to me it also appears as an owl face. Does it to you too?
Their birds are the most delicate paper birds that I have seen in a long time. Love'em!
