About Me




Hi there! My name is Lily Armacost. I’m currently located in Los Angeles, and I have a degree in Communication from the University of California, Santa Barbara. 

I am currently pursuing a career as a junior art director or graphic designer. In my Digital Atelier, you will observe my work making flyers, logos, and patterns, as well as the products of my unpaid creative director and graphic design role for Santa Barbara Surf Company - all of which have expanded my portfolio and obsession with creativity. 

Between ages 5 and 10, I resided in Tokyo, Japan, where I was immersed in a coveted culture that balances minimalism and over-stimulation. As I’ve grown, this balance is something I’ve learned to be my greatest inspiration. Practicing this in my designs is an enthralling challenge. 

Living in Santa Barbara has furthermore inspired me creatively in a substantial way. The earthy tones of Santa Barbara's surreal landscape complement the Spanish-influenced colors seen throughout the city in an energizing balance. I play with this juxtaposition of color in my work.
