Sanem Sevim

Hi! I’m Sanem Sevim, an illustrator and designer with a Bachelor’s in Industrial Design from Middle East Technical University (METU), currently pursuing a Master’s in Marketing in Budapest. I work at the intersection of art, design, and user-centered thinking, and my goal is to build a career in illustration, especially in children’s content and narrative visual work. I currently illustrate for a children’s book project at a publishing house, and I love storytelling through characters, color, and expressive scenes. My background in industrial design means I don’t just draw, I think like a designer: I consider audience, usability, storytelling, communication, and purpose in every project. Alongside illustration, I also have experience in product design, UX/UI, and user research, which allows me to take ideas from concept to reality and collaborate across disciplines. I’m currently seeking opportunities as an illustrator, children’s book artist, 2D digital artist, UX/UI or product designer, and I stand out because I blend artistic sensibility with design thinking, creating visuals that not only look good, but connect, communicate, and engage.
