With 15 years of experience in the creative industry, Lilian Darmono has art directed for a dream client list including Disney, Coca-Cola, American Express, Nabisco and Unilever among others. Her latest project, Buddy: Tech Detective, for Amazon Studios recently premiered on Amazon Prime. Buddy: Tech Detective is an exciting, interactive whodunit for pre-school aged children that follows super-sleuth Buddy, his incredibly organized best friend Trudy, and their funny furry ferret Ferdo. The viewer helps choose the technologies for Buddy and his team to gather evidence, follow cues, and crack the case. In addition to helping others tell their stories, Lilian recently published the first of her own, Little Hedgie and The Springtime, a picture book for 3 to 6 year olds about an adorably allergic hedgehog who loves flowers. We asked Lilian to fill out our Hello Recess Q&A.
We also asked Lilian to illustrate what her favorite toy would say about her for Hello Recess. Turns out her favorite fire truck would give her some tips on home cleaning, especially dusting.

You can find more of Lilian’s work on Behance, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram and get in touch with her through her website. You can also buy Lilian’s first children’s book Little Hedgie and The Springtime on Blurb and her illustrations on Etsy.
