the basics : : : i am ashling loh-doyle, current founder, designer, and printer of LOTUS & ASH. i am oh-so-fond of paper, typography, good design, and when they come together.
a little more info : : : apparently, when you put together a chinese woman from malaysia, and an irishman from a small town in ireland, and place them in los angeles, you'll end up with an ashling. no, not an ashley. an ashling.
and when you put together these two hard-working, like-minded individuals, you'll also end up with a child (again, an... ashling) that has been taught if she wants something she'll have to work for it.
well, at age fifteen (it was about time), i wanted stationery. and the only way to get it, according to my mother, was to make it. so i did. and thus began the playing with paper, as i like to call it.
perhaps, too much information : : : there are few greater pleasures than cutting paper, finding a new favorite font, eating a good bowl of cereal, or going on a 75 degree Stanford Dish run.
