HEY, IT’S ME

I’m not interested in hype, hustle, or helping brands shout louder. I believe good design comes from clarity, collaboration, and care. My work is for those building something thoughtful—with purpose, not just profit.

I’m Sanne Berghuis — a Brand & Graphic Designer from The Netherlands, now based in Berlin. I work with independent thinkers, makers, and small businesses to create visual identities that feel human, intentional, and quietly confident.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design / Visual Communication from the Maastricht Institute of Arts. I’ve been freelancing on the side since 2019, but in 2024 I chose to fully commit—to my work, my values, and the kind of life I want to build.

That life? It’s rooted in simplicity, sustainability, and self-sufficiency. My long-term vision is to live off-grid—growing food, making things by hand, and being close to the land. Design is my way to support that path: a craft I can carry with me, that lets me work with good people, wherever I am.

Let’s create something meaningful together. →
