Thai designer Natchar Sawatdichai — a graduate of the Kingston University in London, releases a colorfully sculptural collection of paper blinds that answer to cues of sustainability. The 'Qualified' product line is sure to emphasize one's home in a very forward and cheerful manner while ensuring a conscious approach to manufacturing and materials.

For the paper blinds, Natchar Sawatdichai utilized recycled paper. The collection is a response to the "throwaway society" and "over-qualified materials." The product in the range is [origami-like](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ori-lamp), aesthetically speaking, and fully adjustable. The materials used in the production of the gorgeous shapes are versatile, readily available and a definite eco-conscious alternative to plastic.

The paper blinds are made with [recycled or ethically sourced materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nytt-lys-collection). As they are mostly handmade, it takes about six to seven hours to create each design.
