My name is Kirin, and I work with creatives to help them build a visual presence and share their story with the world.
Together, we can share your story and your work with simple, elegant and thoughtful design.
Design with Kirin was born because I wanted to connect with creatives and tell their stories by utilizing design.
By teaching myself how to work within the Squarespace toolkit, I have developed a hands-on approach to help clients feel confident in their own skills and abilities when in comes to developing their digital presence as a creator.
I have been working with individual creatives and professionals for over four years building personalized websites that showcase their talents and offerings.
My approach centers the vision and voice of the client instead of fitting them into a one-size-fits-all template.

“Working with Kirin has been an all-round terrific experience. As an established business, I hired Kirin to build a new website for me to replace an outdated one. At the same time, I wanted her to teach me how to manage my own website moving forward. Both goals were accomplished on budget, on schedule, and the process was fun for me. Kirin is very organized, patient, and explains things well. I learned a lot! Most importantly, the website is beautiful, showcases the complexity of my work and represents who I am.”

“An artist requires a special website that is not generic…Paintings come in different shapes and sizes, and that can make using a “standard” template useless. Kirin made knowledgable and perceptive adjustments to a custom format that produced a professional and flexible venue for viewing. She was responsible and timely; she kept things within budget, and was honest in her work and interactions. She also focused on a design that allows ME to do routine changes, additions, and minor alterations to the site on my own. Couldn’t ask for a better experience.”
