Meet the artist

Welcome to Hiacynt Design!
My name is Cynthia de Boer, a surface pattern designer living in the south of the Netherlands, close to the Belgian and German border.
I loved being creative as a child, when I wasn’t playing outside I was always drawing. Being outside and being creative are still my two favourite things.
After getting a degree in product design, I gained experience in various jobs, including working as a graphic designer. Recently I discovered a new love for surface pattern design!
Natural elements like flowers, plants or even animals are the inspiration for my patterns. I love to capture the beauty of the things I see around me. Playing with colours is the icing on the cake.
My aim is to create beautiful artwork that inspires and brings joy.
