This clever notepad from Omoshiroi Block reveals a hidden scene as the sheets of paper are removed. Like revealing creatures at low tide, the intricate Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle is slowly exposed once sheets are pulled off.
We love the dual purpose of the pad, which obviously can be used for notes, but leaves behind a lovely keepsake for your desk.

Omoshiroi Block, which translates roughly as interesting block, is made by Triad, a company in Osaka that started out building architectural models. The pads are laser cut one sheet at a time, so every one of the hundreds of pages carries a slightly different silhouette, and the model only appears as you tear them away. The first blocks reproduced Japanese landmarks like Kiyomizu-dera temple and Asakusa’s Kaminarimon gate, and the Harry Potter edition followed once the idea went viral.
