At first glance, Luca Iaconi-Stewart's impossibly detailed model of a Boeing 777 plane looks like it could be carved from wood. But if you look closer, you'll find that it's made of a material likely sitting in your office's file cabinets.

The San Francisco-based designer's 1:60-scale reproduction is made entirely from manila folders, a project Iaconi-Stewart had planned since 2008.

Throughout the painstaking building process, the designer updated his YouTube account with videos showing the plane's progress. This time-lapse from March 2013 shows Iaconi-Stewart carefully assembling the model's "cabin."

Take a peek inside the completed reproduction, and visit the designer's Flickr page for a closer look.
