ABOUT ✿

Narayani Leonardo is a Dominican-Ecuadorian designer and art director, with a focus on digital design and visual research.

Born and raised in New York, Narayani draws inspiration from the vibrancy of the Latinx and Caribbean diaspora—celebrating joy, beauty, resilience and the matriarchal legacies that raised her. Her work blends minimalist and maximalist motifs through imagery, typography, sound and digital experiences to craft narratives that are both emotive and evocative.

Rooted in storytelling, she sees design as a tool for healing, self-expression and preserving cultural memory—inviting deeper connection to self and our communities.
