It took more than six years to design and construct Warsaw’s famous PKO Rotunda, but you can build it in a few minutes. Your construction tools: scissors, some glue, and your own two hands. Your re-creation will look uncannily similar to Zbigniew Karpiński’s modernist landmark, only much smaller and a lot less robust. It will also be made of paper.

Polish design studio Zupagrafika has released its most recent cut-out series, this time of Warsaw’s stark Brutalist structures. You may have seen the studio’s work before: The designers made paper likenesses of modernist buildings in London and Poznan, Poland. In the "Eastern Block" series, the team turned five of Warsaw’s most famous edifices into miniature, paper replicas that can be cut and folded into 3-D structures.

Zupagrafika Creative Director David Navarro likes to capture what he describes as the “hypnotic concrete dance.” Every paper version is hand-illustrated in incredible detail, down to the dirt and grime on the concrete facade. When you’re dealing with Brutalist structures—all strong, basic geometric forms—it’s the tiniest markings that make a difference.

The designers start their process by inspecting the real-life buildings they want to model and taking notes of minutiae they might want to document, including, Navarro says, "textures, dirt, shadows, graffitis, ventilation machines, and other kind of peculiarities and imperfections that kept our attention when visiting the building."

Look closely and you’ll see graffiti scribblings at the bottom of Osiedle Puławska, a plain rectangular apartment building built in the suburbs of Warsaw. You’ll also notice splotches of aging concrete on Smolna 8, another gray, concrete apartment building.

Zupagrafika has plans to continue the series. Up next is Katowice, which Navrro describes as “a socialist modernist paradise in the industrial Silesian region of Poland.” You can probably tell, there’s a theme here. Aside from being surrounded by Brutalist structures on a daily basis, Zupagrafika's affinity toward the harsh architecture has another purpose. By casting overwhelming buildings in such a fragile material as paper, Navarro says that he hopes "people will look at them from another perspective."
