Hi, I’m Anu Manohar, a graphic designer passionate about creating bold, playful, and impactful work. Currently, I’m a designer at Jones Knowles Ritchie (JKR) in New York.
My journey spans roles at Apple, Established, and 1st Main, as well as collaborations with Adobe, Droga5, and other creative powerhouses.
I thrive on experimenting with vibrant colors, dynamic shapes, and unexpected typography, crafting designs that are as visually striking as they are purpose-driven. Always curious and eager to push boundaries, I aim to challenge conventions and deliver creative solutions that stand out.
