WHERE IT STARTED

Anna started State Of Design started in 2016, as a Graphic Designer she had a  vision to put her design skills to art, creating cohesive artwork, inspired by minimalist, geometric, monochrome design, Scandinavian artists and the Bauhaus design principals, Annas prints are bold, using minimalistic shapes and colour palettes. 

The result is a collection of prints that work together to create your 
perfect gallery wall, or stand alone to compliment any space in your home.

Annas work is designed in a small Wairarapa studio, printed by the highly reputable and professional New Zealand printing company Artist Services, and shipped to our customers doorsteps throughout New Zealand and Australia.
