Hello! My name is Nicole Yamamoto. Based between Vancouver and Seoul, I’ve spent the past five years collaborating with both global and local agencies and brands across fashion, beauty, film, and editorial spaces.
I care deeply about how design can reflect culture in more intentional and nuanced ways. My approach is rooted in the belief that design should make people think—not just about visuals, but about the stories, identities, and cultural contexts behind them. I design with an understanding of how subcultures, pop culture, and personal experiences shape our worldview.
