This design practice emerges at the intersection of architecture, visual design, systemic facilitation and cognition, united by a core principle: when we acknowledge the underlying structures of reality, things come to life more effortlessly than when we try to force them. <img width="1292" height="674" width_o="1292" height_o="674" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9723bc6c3c5788584cbc9cc6e8b7d555f95449bfef6f3a64d8f0b2b96acd2386/Screenshot-2025-02-26-at-16.46.06.png" data-mid="227274872" border="0" data-scale="77" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9723bc6c3c5788584cbc9cc6e8b7d555f95449bfef6f3a64d8f0b2b96acd2386/Screenshot-2025-02-26-at-16.46.06.png" /> Founded by Yulia Kryazheva, an architect‑trained designer, Yulia Ink has worked on diverse projects — from online platforms and workshops to complex visual systems, strategy work and roundtables.

I’ve worked with her on a variety of Dutch as well as International projects, reaching from designing and illustrating online and offline publications to developing workshops and creative labs in locations such as Paris to Berlin and Italy. In all these projects, Yulia proofed herself as an exceptional professional, combining a high level of analytical thinking with a hands-on practical approach. Her versatility as a design professional is matched by both, her commitment to and the high quality of her work. I couldn’t think of any designer I would more highly recommend!”Sebastian OlmaProfessor of Autonomy | Lector Autonoom MakenCentre for Art, Design &amp; TechnologyAvans Hogeschool | Avans University of Applied Sciences “Yulia is a very strong designer with great visual talent. I have worked with her on several projects where her ability to visualize problems and concepts has been incredibly valuable: Project Definition for a large customer experience ICT project in the business and consumer telecom market. Thanks to Yulia’s drawings, created during the workshop, our team was able to quickly align, and the project’s goals, risks, and pitfalls became much clearer.Product Development for an ICT company. With a group of IT consultants, we used Yulia’s process and visuals to develop a set of tangible products and IT services.Concept Development. Yulia’s (feedback) drawings helped our team of strategy consultants translate the concept of ‘antifragility’ into concrete and actionable use cases. Yulia is also a remarkable and wonderful person to work with. Her cultural background and unique perspective allow her to hold up a clear mirror, capturing different viewpoints in simple yet powerfully expressive visuals.”Rob van RoesselIndependent Program Manager | Product Owner Digital Business Transformation “Yulia is a highly professional designer — creative, precise, and with an exceptional ability to understand client needs. She puts the end product at the center and helps clarify expectations from the start, laying a solid foundation for a structured process with clear steps. She is flexible, adapts to client needs, and remains engaged until the final stages of a project. With a strong network of professionals, her relationship-driven and coordinating approach ensures high-quality results.”.Han Schouten,PR &amp; Communication | CE Delft “The collaboration was a great experience — I was impressed by how quickly she grasped a complex and unfamiliar topic like post-detention care and translated it into a clear and engaging visual. She achieves this by asking the right questions, understanding the client's needs, and thinking constructively along the way. Her ability to listen, combined with her flexible and genuinely engaged work style, makes communication smooth and ensures high-quality results. Yulia delivered a beautiful, highly useful visualization that we continue to benefit from every day.”Roselyne van der HeulInnovation &amp; Development | Exodus South-Holland "I have always found Yulia to be exceedingly responsive, both in time and in content. She is a very talented designer, with excellent ideas that also address content as well as form. (A thoughtful suggestion for Cities Alive led to a major re-focusing of the project, which was an enormous improvement.) At the same time she is a consummate team player, fully responsive to our needs and desires as client."Michael W.
