Every year Unisource takes over a ballroom at the Hilton Chicago and showcases hundreds and hundreds of paper samples and swatchbooks, which (amazingly) you can take home with you. Unisource is the largest paper distributor in the midwest and will have 15 of the world’s finest paper mills represented at the show. Remember those rockin’ samples at Pecha Kucha? Well, this is a whole ballroom full of them. We’ve been to the event and it’s fab!
