About

I’m Sami Gaston, a community-minded designer, brand strategist, and creative builder. My work lives at the intersection of design + space: helping businesses shape strong identities and create environments that bring people together.

Through my creative studio, I collaborate with brands, entrepreneurs, and cultural organizations to transform ideas into places and experiences that foster connection and belonging. From brand systems and visual identity to spatial activation, events, and product collaborations, I design holistically – connecting visuals, environments, and community impact.

Over the past decade, I’ve founded and grown neighborhood institutions, developed inclusive programs, and partnered with artists and community leaders to turn vision into reality. My approach is both strategic and human-centered.  

Rooted in Portland, I believe that thoughtful design can strengthen communities and shape a more inclusive future.

Let’s make something that brings people together.
