Alissa Bell

We rejoice in the use of color and minimalist design. Paper is something that lasts forever, and really, style is what matters most. Alissa's decision to launch her own art practice more than a decade ago marked her departure from a successful career in the business sector. Along with that, life has moved this studio around to many other locations, such as a garage in Mt. Washington, Los Angeles, and a warehouse in Marina, California. Alissa's drive comes from the fact that she can create beautiful paper goods that bring people together regardless of where she is. She is of the opinion that paper enriches the experiences that we have with one another and with ourselves. Her color choice and appreciation of simplicity are reflected in both her line and the bespoke work she does. Alisa and her husband and their three young children currently make their home in Carmel, California. Stationaery is the name of the neighborhood eatery that the two of them own together. Her work has been highlighted in publications such as New York Magazine, C Weddings, Goop, and Martha Stewart. You'll discover some of Alissa's memories of the numerous places she's worked and the wonderful crew of creatives she's had the good fortune to work with below, along with the work they've generated throughout the years.
