Cleo Sonski is a Los Angeles–based designer with a soft spot for typography, color, texture, photography, and anything that feels a little bit magical. She earned her BFA in Web Design and New Media from the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, then explored the Bay Area’s startup scene, accumulating experience, a caffeine habit, and a deep appreciation for clever digital experiences. Eventually, the gravitational pull of her hometown (and its unmistakable sparkle) called her back to LA.

​

When she’s not designing, Cleo can be found tinkering with her film camera, hunting down the perfect slice of pizza, getting lost in LA’s endlessly weird and wonderful neighborhoods, or curled up with Fry, her orange-tabby sidekick and unofficial creative director, binging the latest film or TV series obsession.

​

Her visual toolkit spans across product design, branding, print, UI, iconography, illustration, typography, and marketing—basically anything that lets her mix design with strategy.
