Work in progress. Work that got cut. Worth seeing anyway.

I'm always making something. It usually lives in my personal archive — now it has a home here too.

About

Farah Rose. Designer. Always making.

My work most visibly lives on your mobile device (hi Meta 🤷🏻‍♀️), Lower East Side gallery spaces (I'm a painting lady 🖼️), the halls of Williamsburg loft buildings (a connected one 🤝), and a variety of brand sites (digital eclecticism 💻). But mostly it lives across an abundance of Figma files, Creative Cloud documents, 12 notes apps (8 of which I probably built myself 🏗️), coding IDEs, voice memos, an Obsidian vault, and a very organized desktop.

Bio

I'm a creative director and product designer who spent six years building things at scale at Instagram and Meta. I work across brand identity, art direction, web design, and digital product — and I paint on the side, always.

I'm available for creative direction work with brands who want a real point of view. If you want something that doesn't look like everyone else's version of it — that's exactly what I do.
