Hi! I’m Genuine Ko and I design!

I am drawn to things that are fluid, undefined, and untold. I believe in their potential for change and in the deep resonance of the unseen. Growing up across different cities and environments, I came to see the world from multiple angles. Everything is complexly interconnected, and yet every part of it speaks in its own voice. I find meaning in the spaces, the moments, and what passes between, in all the things that are easy to overlook. In design, I believe in the weight of emptiness. What is left out can be just as intentional as what remains.

Music is my unavoidable passion. I'm drawn to how it exists as a language, in words and beyond them. I sing and arrange for Trogons, and co-design social media for Band Kori. I also work as a graphic designer with the Opera team at USC Thornton School of Music. Culture and identity are always somewhere in my work, shaping the kind of thinking that stays open to where it hasn't been before.
