Hi, that’s me
Hi, I'm Sarah Grünewald – a graphic design student and creative entrepreneur based in Germany. Since launching my own small business in 2022, I've been on an incredible journey of discovery, growth, and endless inspiration.
My creative approach blends fresh ideas with thoughtful design, always driven by curiosity and a passion for visual storytelling. I believe in the power of simplicity, clarity, and meaningful connection in everything I create.
In my work, I'm inspired by everyday experiences, vibrant colors, and conversations with people around me. Being both a student and an entrepreneur keeps me constantly learning, exploring new tools and trends, and always pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
Whether collaborating on exciting projects or bringing personal visions to life, my goal remains the same: create authentic, impactful designs that resonate deeply.
There is more amazing design to come so keep this site on mind!
