Olivia Kane
Olivia Kane is a Brooklyn-based designer crafting identities and publications for lifestyle & hospitality brands and cultural institutions.

Olivia is my name, typography is my game. I craft design systems that balance authentic, emotive storytelling with intuitive logic and precision.

I’m currently available for freelance opportunities.
