Paper in bulk—collected sheet by sheet and neatly combined by hand into 500-gram portions: made from unused waste paper, printing scraps, overproduction, and single-sided sheets. Precisely cut, bound with glue, and fitted with an open, paper flap cover, this collection of sheets becomes a beautiful object and a useful one-of-a-kind item for desks, consoles, and more. And it helps save resources, too.

The exact number of pages depends on the weight of the paper used—but there are always 500 sheets.

Each pad is unique and is individually assembled in the Dirty Notes workshop in the Parisian suburb of Pantin. This creates a harmonious overall picture of material and color. Slight irregularities or small deviations between the individual copies, such as the number of pages and weight, are possible due to the production process.
