Hey.I’m Ksenia. Nice to meet you. I’m a designer, illustrator and art director based in Philadelphia. My experience spans both boutique design studios and in-house tech companies. I’ve led rebrands for institutions like The Philadelphia Orchestra and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and shaped smaller projects for brands like Figma. In my free time, I bake canelés. They sound like cannolis, but they’re far more nuanced — and that difference matters.

280 Group had evolved, but their brand no longer reflected their leadership in product management training and consulting. We led a full rebrand — naming, positioning, visual identity and system design. The new logo draws from product workflow diagrams, forming a structured “P” that signals clarity and process. A bold, distinctive color palette and refined typography set them apart in a crowded space, while a distinctive illustrative layer adds texture and depth to the system. The result is a brand that feels sharp, confident and built for modern product teams.
