Light + Paper
<head><meta charset="UTF-8" /></head>
It was a fateful day one December when, in search of a unique Christmas gift, Ali decided to try a new craft. Using a borrowed box cutter and her kitchen cutting board, Ali created her first papercutting. After falling in love with cutting paper, Ali armed herself with a sharper blade and an actual cutting mat, and Light + Paper was born. At first, all Light & Paper items were handcut originals - but when Ali took Light + Paper full time she invested in a lasercutter to be able to reproduce her papercutting designs.
Preferring a blade to a pen, Ali first creates her designs by cutting paper by hand. These intricate, unique patterns are then transformed into a variety of fun lasercut housewares or other goods.
Ali draws much of her inspiration from science and the human body, as well as nature, architecture and repeating patterns.
