Aesence was founded in 2015 by Sarah Dorweiler, a creative entrepreneur from Berlin.

The journal has become a well-known source for minimalist aesthetics, whose readers appreciate its consistent and high quality curation of content rather than quantity or trends. It is an invitation for creatives to expand their horizons beyond the bubble of quantity and mediocrity, honoring good aesthetics from the most creative minds worldwide.

Aesence reaches millions of people worldwide every month and was nominated in 2018 as „Best Design Inspiration Blog“ by Amara Blog Awards.

The studio focuses on creative direction, brand development, photography, design and curation.

The name Aesence is the combination of the two words essence and aesthetics.

Sarah discovered her love for minimalist aesthetics more than a decade ago while studying architecture. She is also a passionate fine art photographer and loves to capture the calming and timeless beauty of lines, shapes, light and good architecture.

Her work has been featured by: Medium, Microsoft, Wordpress, Unfold, Squarespace, Mailchimp, Trello, Instyle, MyDomain, BusinessInsider, Elle, Westwing and more.
