Sonnhild Kestler (born 1963 in Germany, grew up in Zürich, Switzerland[1]) is a Swiss textile designer.
[2][3] With the block printing method Kestler creates intricate textiles in limited series.
[4] Between 1981 and 1985, Sonnhild Kestler studied textile design at the Schule für Gestaltung Zürich, the school for applied arts in Zurich.
Since 1985, she has been working as an independent designer, for labels such as «Pink Flamingo», «Apropos» und «Sourire enSoie».
[7] The designs are created in a collage technique: individual pictorial elements printed on paper, combined in variations over and over again before the images are manually screen-printed onto fabric.
