about paperfactor 3
A Vanguard Vision of Material Architecture and Design.
Founded in 2016 by Riccardo Cavaciocchi, Paper Factor focuses on material research and architecture through the experimental manipulation of a groundbreaking compound developed by his mother Lidiana Miotto, who established the Center for the Restoration of Paper Material after years of work at the International School of Restoration in Venice and at the restoration workshop of the Abbey of Santa Giustina in Padua.

Today, Paper Factor creates cladding surfaces, furniture, and products for various sectors, including architecture, contemporary art, design, fashion brands, automotive, yachts, and private residences. The Paper Factor collection addresses the evolving needs of conscious professionals and creatives who are particularly sensitive to environmental concerns, who are committed to responsible practices, and who seek alternative manufacturing techniques that merge aesthetics, identity, performance, and functionality.

Redefining the boundaries of design and architecture through the versatile and inventive soul of Paper Factor.


Riccardo Cavaciocchi's idea of broadening the creative horizons of the cellulose compound—refining methods and techniques while expanding its applications—connects artisanal excellence with the rigor of art and the progress of technology to exploit the inherent value of an extraordinarily dynamic, versatile, and inventive material that easily accommodates multiple styles and scenarios.
