If I spoke better French, I would know more about Julien Vallée. As it stands, all I know is that he’s a graphic and motion graphic designer based in Canada, and he does some super-cool stuff with paper and cardboard. I hope you’ll excuse the sketchy details and settle for a peek at these gorgeous pictures from his website, and the FANTASTIC little video he made for Black and White. His many talents include:
1) Incredible animation combining computer and in-camera animation techniques:
via notcot.org and viacomit (and lots of other places)
2) creating fantastic 3D models from cardboard and paper:

3) …and displaying large collections of items in neatly ordered patterns:
Cover for Print magazine
This mag cover was also Published in Tactile – High Touch Visuals (A book from Die-Gestalten – Berlin – 2007)
Or perhaps I am just obsessed with paper.
