Information — Yixuan Cao

Yixuan Cao is a Ürümqi born, New York based brand designerand art director. She holds a BFA degree from the School of Visual Arts.

She blends strategy with craft, drawing on experience across agencies and independent practice. She turns abstract problems into clear, purposeful design through dialogue and collaboration. Her work helps brands find clarity, create tailored design + social solutions that are both effective and visually strong.

Yixuan believes that design can be more inclusive than it is now. Getting out of the collective practice of western design education, she acknowledges that assumption was made and bias was formed, and there is no such thing as “universal communication.”

She is still seeking her own voice out of all the experience that shaped her. With that said, she is excited about different culture around the globe.

She is currently freelancing.

Feel free to grab a coffee with her (IRL or virtually.)
