Sarah Stec is a graphic designer and artist based in Chicago, IL, working under the handle Typemonger. Her practice centres on abstract pattern design and is distributed primarily through Spoonflower, where she maintains 51 fabric and 51 wallpaper designs. Selected Instagram images confirm a varied pattern vocabulary spanning organic forms, floral motifs, and typographically-influenced abstract compositions.
Stec describes her work as translating emotions into line and colour. Her inspirations are typography, the Pacific coastline, and patterns in nature - a combination that produces work ranging from loose organic forms (Sea Orbs, Warm Chaos) to structured florals (Spa Petals, French Roses). The portfolio features a preference for mid-toned palettes and non-literal interpretations of natural subject matter. Collections reflect a consistent interest in conceptual framing: Palms I/II, Lattice Flowers, and Don't Quote Me.
