(About me)
(01)

Hi,

I’m Kurl, AKA Sarah. Kurl Design was born from an early fascination with shapes, letters, and the power of visual expression.

Person wearing a corduroy jacket with a front zipper and the word 'MAGENTA', facing slightly sideways with a green scribble obscuring their face.

What began as a love for typography and street art grew into a passion for graphic design, a craft where creativity is grounded in intention.

From the first spray can to the digital canvas, I’ve always seen design as more than aesthetics; it’s a way to communicate clearly and meaningfully.

The name "Kurl" is a nod to those early sparks of inspiration, a reminder of the raw energy that shaped my approach.

Every project, big or small, is a chance to connect, create and share stories, not through words alone, but through thoughtful visual expression. It’s about capturing the essence of an idea and distilling it into something direct, engaging and memorable.
Most of them begin in my A5 Fabriano sketchbook, the quiet space where chaos finds form and ideas start to breathe. It’s where messy thoughts become structured systems, one sketch at a time. @fabriano, if you’re reading this, I’m ready for a refill.
Today, design is more than my profession. It’s how I connect with others, solve problems and bring ideas to life.
