Teresa Chan is a surface pattern designer and illustrator based in Kensington, California. Her design journey began in her grandfather’s tailoring shop in San Francisco, where she developed a deep appreciation for patterns and textiles. Teresa’s work is inspired by nature, often featuring florals and animals, and she creates patterns that evoke both nostalgia and modernity. She works primarily with Adobe Illustrator and enjoys the process of transforming imaginative designs into tangible products. Outside of her design work, Teresa finds inspiration in her daily life, including spending time with her family and engaging in creative activities.
