Poster: 100 years of GF Smith Paper...

To create my poster, I need a link between the image I would use, the number 100, as well as relating it to GF Smith paper. Therefore I looked for inspiration from everyday objects around me: 

I looked at the circles of paper cut by a hole punch, thinking perhaps I could use these circles in some way on the poster - using sections and cut outs of paper.

I looked at my shower because there's about 100 tiles there and its a very clear grid. I could use an obvious grided layout in a tile format for my poster? Create things in each section? Use different colours or textures of paper for the squares?

Even though this about 400 sheets, I looked at a stack of paper, maybe I could cut into it to create the text? or photograph it well to capture the lines in the stack? I could flick through the paper and capture it to see the motion? However if I were to use to just 100 sheets it may be too thin...

I looked at elastic band balls because there can be hundreds of elastic bands holding this structure together, also its very built up, like GF Smith paper is! I could recreate a rubber band ball using strips of paper. Perhaps incorporating the text in the strips? or adding the text onto the poster?
