Faisal Azad

I’m Sal, a paper toys lover and graphic designer from Bandung, Indonesia. I’ve been making paper toys for over 10 years, and I’ve created a wide variety of designs, from monsters to robots to traditional Indonesian characters. I love the challenge of creating paper toys that are both fun and challenging to assemble. I also enjoy the creative process of coming up with new designs.

I share my free paper toys templates online so that people all over the world can enjoy them. I’ve also participated in several exhibitions and workshops, and I’ve collaborated with designers from all over the world. I’m passionate about paper toys and I’m always looking for new ways to create and share them.

In addition to my paper toy hobby, I also work as a graphic designer at a small firm in Bandung. I love using my design skills to create paper toys that are both visually appealing and fun to play with.

I’m always looking for new challenges and opportunities to learn and grow. I’m excited to see what the future holds for me in paper toys and graphic design.
