Jinny F is the Hawaii-based designer behind DeyaStudio, a surface pattern and art licensing studio. The studio name "De Ya" (德 雅) is a tribute to her grandfather, combining Chinese characters from both their names and honouring values of diligence and humility. Raised in New York City, Jinny spent 7 years living abroad across the Middle East and Asia before settling in Hawaii. She holds degrees in communication, studio art, and graphic design, and brings over 15 years of branding and advertising experience to her current surface pattern practice.
Heritage motifs from Asian cultures, blue and white porcelain aesthetics, and travel-informed nature imagery are central to DeyaStudio's visual language. The portfolio features a hand-painted quality with botanical and figurative compositions. Two documented collections frame the aesthetic: Heirloom Holiday (graceful songbirds, vintage florals, candy cane stripes, whimsical wreaths - warm and nostalgic) and Faded Treasures (time-worn, cottage-adjacent botanical patterns with a soft vintage palette). Blue and white porcelain is a stated personal favourite.
Hand-drawn and hand-painted motifs finished digitally. Practice spans surface pattern design, art licensing, custom collaborations, and colour/scale adjustments to existing designs. The studio works with clients to develop custom patterns or adapt existing designs to specific project requirements.
Home décor (fabric, wallpaper), gifting (gift wrap, ribbons, stockings, pillows), and stationery. Designs available via Spoonflower (fabric, wallpaper, home décor) and Zazzle (custom gift products). The studio offers both ready-to-license designs and custom licensing for brands and businesses.
Grew up in New York City, with early art-making in her grandparents' home. Pursued degrees in communication, studio art, and graphic design. Worked for 15+ years in branding and advertising with businesses across a range of scales. Lived abroad for 7 years across the Middle East and Asia, experiences that shaped her multicultural design perspective. Relocated to Hawaii and pivoted to surface pattern design as an integration of her design background, storytelling interest, and cultural influences accumulated through travel.
Two documented collections: Heirloom Holiday (hand-drawn Christmas patterns - Jolly Songbirds, Cheerful Bows, Winter Meadow - available in five colourways on Spoonflower) and Faded Treasures (time-worn botanical and cottage-style patterns, also on Spoonflower). Selected Instagram images confirm botanical and heritage-motif compositions consistent with a blue-and-white porcelain and vintage floral aesthetic.
