Hi, I’m Sanaz—a surface pattern designer, illustrator, and gardener at heart. My journey into the world of design began with a love for colours, nature, and creativity. Inspired by the beauty of gardens, flowers, and outdoor adventures, I create vibrant, whimsical patterns that spark joy and uplift spirits.

Each design starts with a moment of inspiration—whether it’s a doodle in my notepad, a photograph from a walk, or the vibrant blooms in my garden. I bring these ideas to life using tools like Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, blending traditional and digital methods to create unique patterns for products such as tote bags, cushions, tea towels, and stationery.

With a background in science and a self-taught passion for art, I’ve found my true calling in surface pattern design. My work is rooted in a desire to bring happiness to people’s lives—whether it’s through a playful print for a child’s room, a beautiful gift for a loved one, or a serene floral pattern to brighten a home. I have a special fondness for designing pieces that bring smiles to the faces of children and young people, as their joy and wonder inspire me endlessly.

Outside of design, my life is enriched by the simple yet meaningful moments I treasure—taking long walks in nature, enjoying sports that keep me energised, and finding peace through meditation. These practices fuel my creativity, helping me approach my work with a calm and joyful heart. As a mother, I also cherish time spent with children, whose curiosity and boundless imagination are constant reminders to embrace the playful side of life.
