One creative mind, two distinct lenses.
I am Katherine Inoue. Creative Director, Visual Strategist, and the mind behind Kazaue, a studio built to disrupt, challenge, and inspire. Crafting meaningful brand experiences that emphasize people and purpose.

In the boardrooms and brand decks, I learned the language of precision
How to shape and build campaigns so it lands and holds.
But there’s another voice in me. One that ignores “safe” and aims for unforgettable.
That voice became Kazaue — instinct-driven, heritage-fueled, unapologetic.
Now, I create in two modes:
1 — Katherine Inoue
The strategist who makes ideas work in any room.
The expert. Structured. Sharp. Senior.
15+ years leading creative campaigns, brand systems, and visual strategy.
Turns ideas into clear, high-performing creative.
2 — Kazaue
The intuitive who makes them impossible to forget.
The artist. Intuitive. Experimental. Bold.
A fusion of Brazilian roots + Japanese heritage.
Builds brand worlds that feel like protest and poetry.
