Paper, foldedin Okota
One room, two presses and a table of counting paper. Everything on this site is folded, pressed, counted and banded by the people who answer your messages.

The studiosheet
One crease, four folds: the room, the start, the orders, the bulk.
01
The room on Ago Palace Way
Everything sold here leaves from one address: Victory Estate, Ago Palace Way, Okota, Lagos. Six shelves, two presses and a cutting table — the folding, the pressing and the counting happen in the same room, at the same table, usually on the same day.
02
Folding since 2019
The studio has folded paper for money since 2019. Cranes, boxes, plates and party packs have gone out of the same Okota room since then — what changed is the number of shelves, not the method.
03
An order starts as a message
You can pay securely online with Paystack at checkout. An order starts on WhatsApp, gets confirmed the same day with a number and a photograph of the finished pack, and is paid by bank transfer, at the studio, or by POS. Nothing is folded and nothing ships until the transfer clears.
04
Bulk is booked, not rushed
Bulk runs start earlier rather than fold faster: three to five working days for a two-hundred guest order. Volume pricing starts at fifty units — five per cent off, ten from a hundred, fifteen from two hundred and fifty — and applies to the whole order, so mixing lines still counts. From five hundred units the rate is quoted, on a named account with a fifty per cent deposit.

Why paper
Three reasons, none of them about the planet in a general way.
01
It composts in weeks, not centuries
Plates and napkins are pressed from sugarcane bagasse and recycled kraft. After an event they go into a home compost and are gone before the next birthday. Nothing on the table outlives the memory of the table.
02
The fold is the finish
No glue, no staples, no printed logo. A gift box holds a gift because two flaps meet under their own tension, so it opens the same way the third time it did.
03
It packs into a rider bag
Flat is a feature. A fortnight of tableware for a hundred people rides in a courier carton the size of a shoebox, which is a fifth of what the same count in rigid plastic would need.
06
The facts,and the door
The same address, number and handle printed on the packaging.
