Me, Sakarit, is a graphic designer by trade, a wabi-sabi gardener by soul, and a cook by enthusiasm. I explore the intersection of umami, pixels, and soil, creating striking visuals and immersive works that feel like home, nowhere, and a little bit like Andromeda. I don’t separate my life into ‘work‘ and ‘hobbies.’ My design practice (pixels) is informed by the way I grow things (soil) and the way I cook (umami). It is how I see the world and how I live every day. I want my work to feel grounded enough to be ‘home,’ also anywhere can be home, and nowhere can be home as well. But it could be bold and otherworldly enough to be ‘Andromeda’ — like somewhere out of space. Whether it is local or infinite, it is all part of the same creative ecosystem.

My foundation was built in Northern Thailand, where I had the privilege of learning to create with limited resources and a lesson in ingenuity that still defines my work today. My creative mind was further shaped in Bangkok, Phuket, and Philadelphia, where I learned that becoming who you are is a process of constant evolution. I have learned so much from my mistakes and will continue to do so, grateful for every step of the journey as I move forward. My current creative coordinates are Brooklyn, New York.

I am a graduate of Pratt Institute, where I earned a BFA in Communications Design (Graphic Design), focusing on the intersection of typography, motion, and digital, physical, and virtual spaces. Dedicated to immersive and experiential design, I create captivating visuals across fashion, motion, web, and publishing. My work is rooted in circular design principles, prioritizing material longevity and minimal energy consumption, and is defined by whimsical experimentation and interdisciplinary storytelling.

Ultimately, I aim to weave these elements together to create a Gesamtkunstwerk, —“a total work of art.”

I believe design should be more than seen; it should be felt, ingrained, and inhabited. I also believe that:

“There’s a fine line between creativity and insanity—crossing the line is sublimity.”

I can push the limits with bold, maximalist compositions, but I also know when to pull back and let a deliberate, minimalist approach speak for itself. It is about understanding the moment, knowing when to lean into the whimsical and when to stay simple. Above all, I treat every day as new territory. I remain open to the unexpected fields and realms I have yet to encounter, constantly absorbing new perspectives to evolve my life and my practice.

Beyond the screen, my hands are in the soil or the kitchen. While not a chef, I hold a degree in Traditional Thai Culinary Arts:100 Authentic Recipes, and I thrive on ingredients that challenge ‘authenticity,’ dreaming of a design practice as flavorful and layered as a great dish. For millennia, people have exchanged raw ingredients from one place to another, transforming their ‘original‘ cuisine to be original somewhere else, reminding me that true ‘authenticity‘ is a flexible illusion.

My gardening and landscaping, spanning everything from intimate terrariums to wild and sprawling landscapes, are fueled by a love for Puccini’s operatic drama and the raw beauty of wabi-sabi. Whether crafting miniature living worlds, structural headpieces, or grotesque sculptures, I am guided by a singular belief, my work follows one simple belief: everything is imperfect, yet extraordinarily operatic.
