AMANDA CHENG
Born and raised in Hong Kong, Amanda Cheng had not initially thought of pursuing a career in paper craft design. She studied Management Information Systems in Taiwan and worked in Mexico and Nicaragua for non-design sectors. Rekindling her passion in art and design, she returned to Hong Kong in 2007 and obtained diplomas in various areas such as interior design, commercial design, and photography.
Cheng realized the importance of paper craft offering to the deceased, which serves as a condolence to the bereaved, after experiencing the emotional feelings herself. She then founded Soul House (Paper Art) Design Studio in 2010, providing tailored paper craft installations for wedding venues, shop displays, exhibitions and offices. She has explored the value of the Chinese paper craft offering culture and hopes to conserve this precious Chinese tradition by adding a touch of modern style and techniques.
