Design as a mirror.
Modern Day Altar is a living space for modern creativityβnostalgic in feeling, fresh in expression, and grounded with a touch of earthy magic. Itβs where story, aesthetic, and intention meet.
The Modern Day Altar reflects a modern take on the word βaltarββnot a religious site, not something rigid, but a place you return to, inner or outer, when you want to reconnect with yourself and what matters.
MEET YOUR MIRROR
SARAH
Iβm Sarah β a creative strategist and designer who believes that good design doesnβt just look beautiful, it feels like something.
My work sits at the intersection of story, intuition, and structure. I help people and brands translate whatβs already alive inside them into visuals, language, and digital spaces that feel grounded, intentional, and unmistakably theirs.
I didnβt come to this work through a straight line. I came through reflection, reinvention, and learning what it actually means to trust my inner compass β especially when there isnβt a clear map. That lived experience shapes everything I create. I care less about trends and more about resonance. Less about perfection, more about coherence.
Through Modern Day Altar, I treat creativity as both a practice and a place to land. Whether Iβm designing a brand, a website, or a piece of writing, my intention is the same: to create work that feels honest, spacious, and aligned β work that supports people in being seen without having to perform.
This is design shaped by meaning, not noise.
Story over spectacle.
Depth over rush.
WHAT SETS US APART
A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME
-
Yoga and its teachings are woven into my everyday life. Spirituality and faith ground me, and Iβm endlessly curious about astrology, lunar cycles, and the unseen forces at play beneath the surface. These practices inform how I show up β attuned, present, and creatively honest β both in life and in my work.
-
Writing and poetry are how I process and honor life. Iβve kept a personal journaling practice for nearly eight years, and it has been central to my growth. Poetry allows me to feel an emotion fully and carry it to completion β much like what singer-songwriters experience when performing a song born from the soul.
-
I love animals, and my big orange cat, Bear, is my constant companion and partner in crime. He keeps me on track β and reminds me that itβs perfectly okay to pause and take a nap now and then.
