Meet the silliest fruit of them all.
I’m Euzhan the creative force behind Silly Fruit. This is where I empower queer-focused and Black-focused brands and initiatives with bold branding solutions. With a BFA in Graphic Design and Marketing from Ohio University, my career has been dedicated to transforming ideas into striking visuals. My work has earned multiple Collegiate Advertising Awards for excellence in web design, integrated marketing campaigns, and advertising, and fan favorite in poster design.
Before founding Silly Fruit, I collaborated with clients like Stanford University, Franklin University, and Hotwire, leading projects that elevated brand engagement and delivered innovative design systems. When I’m not working, you’ll often find me roller skating or playing bass in my band, infusing creativity into every corner of my life. With Silly Fruit, I bring that same passion and artistic vision to empowering communities that champion authenticity, and inclusivity.

What I do ⋆
I create bold designs that celebrate unapologetic self-expression, joy, and community. My services include visual identity branding, product design, campaign development, and ongoing creative support, all crafted to help brands stand out and thrive.
Why I do this ⋆
At its core, Silly Fruit is about joy, creativity, and passion. By embracing these values, I create a genuine sense of belonging for my collaborators and partners—ensuring that Black and queer communities are seen, heard, and deeply valued.
Who I do this for ⋆
I support brands and initiatives that are dedicated to defending, educating, and uplifting our communities. I collaborate with change-makers, innovators, and community-driven brands that highlight underrepresented voices.
How it started ⋆
Silly Fruit started as a showcase of works by me, Euzhan, but evolved in 2020—amid the George Floyd protests in Columbus, Ohio—into a dynamic design studio that grows and adapts alongside the needs of our communities.
