SLEEVE / STICK / HEAD

Sleeve Index

Paper sleeves, edge folds, drawer openings, and the simple outer geometry of a matchbox.

Visual principle

Treat matchboxes as paper objects and unlit matches as repeated wooden lines rather than as ignition or fire content.

What to notice

Look at repetition, edge profile, spacing, material texture, negative space, reflected light, and the way small details create a larger system.

Editorial use

Alternate one strong object view with close material crops and quieter surface studies so the archive feels collected rather than repetitive.
