In 2008, Sandra established Planeta Design and has been running a successful business ever since. The agency has worked with a number of international - as well as national - lifestyle brands. Today it has a solid reputation as a brand, concept and design agency.
Sandra is a well-known international jury chairman within the design category, having been Design Chairman at Eurobest 2015, Chairman of the Cannes Lions Design Award 2017, and a Jury Member in OneShow 2018 (US).
As a true believer in her company and client relationships, she believes that design and brands should be treated as a business asset. “Design is business” says Sandra, “in a complex word of communication and multi-channels, the brand, the product and it’s identity is critical. Every company or brand that understands the value of design increases sustainability and increases good business”.
