At Karma by Design, our work is deeply influenced by some of the most iconic names in both classic and contemporary art. These artists have shaped not only the visual direction of our collections but also the energy, emotion, and cultural relevance behind them.


Here’s a look at a few of the creative legends and cultural figures that inspire our process:

Our art celebrates luxury fashion as a cultural language — just like a canvas, a handbag or sneaker can be a symbol of story, status, or self-expression.

We’re inspired by the elegance of Hermès, the boldness of Dior, the timeless style of Chanel, and the street-luxury edge of Supreme and Off-White.


You’ll find nods to fashion houses, jewelry brands like Tiffany & Co., and streetwear staples throughout our pieces — often blended with abstract art, graffiti, or pop culture elements for a layered, collectible feel.
