Yumi Kurosawa is an award-winning Visual Director with extensive experience working alongside purpose-driven organizations and early-stage founders. At CO/STUDIOS, she crafts identity systems that align with a brand's mission and translate cleanly across digital, packaging, and experiential touchpoints.
Before turning her focus to start-ups, Yumi built her practice inside the world's biggest lifestyle brands — leading visual programs that shaped how those brands looked, moved, and showed up in culture.
Her work has been recognized across the design industry and is defined by a quiet confidence — strong art direction, restrained typography, and a craft-led sensibility that holds up at any scale.
As a Visual Director Member at CO/STUDIOS, Yumi gives founders senior-level creative direction from day one — building the visual foundation a venture needs to launch, scale, and stay coherent as it grows.
