Khyati Trehan
Designer
"When I'm at work, I make for people. When I go home, I make for myself." Khyati Trehan is an independent Indian Graphic designer by day where she brings clarity, movement and identity to the intangibles, and a 3D visual artist by night, giving form to feelings; mostly her own. Her personal work is textural, emotive, vivid and often attached to a memory. She was named as one of Print Magazine's 15 New Visual Artists under 30 in 2017, and her work has been recognized by WIRED, Vice, Communication Arts, Fast Company, Creative Review, and Wepresent to name a few. She has had the opportunity to work with the likes of Apple, Samsung, the New York Times, New Yorker Magazine, Print, WeWork, IDEO, Adobe, Instagram and Snapchat. This year, she was chosen as an honoree for Adweek's Creator Visionary Awards for the title of Artistry Creator of the Year.
