We couldn't resist stopping by CutLaserCut to check out a small exhibition of new laser cut projects. Clearly trying to get in on the LDF'11 action to show of their skills to prospective designerly clients, the small laser cutting outfit have put on a rather impressive display in their little foyer.

These dangerous looking heels are by London-based fashion design Char Har Lee, laser cut from acrylic, stainless steel and leather.

Food design outfit Astarism have been using the services at CutLaserCut to burn exceedingly delicate patterns into food and garnish, including poppadoms and banana leaves.

Above, great idea for a notepad with ornate frame. Masterpiece Pad by Benjamin Parton.

There was also an impressive array of laser etching on display, not least these examples, "Beat Junkie" skateboard deck (above) by Richard John Smith and "Faces" (below) by American artist Ryan Bubnis.
