LDS 001 – ZERO TO LAZER CUT
➝ Design a curated laser cut collection while learning the fundamentals of design & laser cutting.
with Alex Lawton, founder Lazer Universe / Lazer Design School
You’re exactly where you need to be to start desiging & laser cutting!
This hands-on 6-week beginner course will guide you from total beginner to making your very own laser cut products — whether that’s a pair of earrings, a brooch, or a small piece of wall art. You’ll learn how to use Adobe Illustrator for laser design, explore the creative possibilities of vector based design, and walk away with new skills, a finished curated collection, and a community of like-minded creatives.
No prior design experience needed. No tech overwhelm. Just good vibes and the satisfaction of making something with your own two hands.

At its heart, this is about confidence, creativity, and connection. You don’t need to be “techy” to be a maker. You just need a place to start — and that’s exactly what this course gives you.
