I’m Anya. I’m a Communication Designer. An innately curious, permanently hungry, obsessively tidy 23 year old. It’s likely that by the time I get around to regularly updating this blog, I will no longer be 23. Oh well. I’ll give it an honest shot.
There’s a lot I have to say about a lot of things. About design and art and books and photography and philosophy and religion and society. Most of the time these conversations take place in my head. When I’m lucky enough, these conversations take place in the quietest part of a noisy bar between a few friends over several beers. Last year, I took a brave step and published examples of my work online. If you have a minute, take a look here
And come back here, because I’m mustering up the courage to write. And I’d love it if my writing was read.

Stray Thoughts on Design 
you said “Last year, I took a brave step and published examples of my work online. If you have a minute, take a look.” but look where?
Hi! I’m so sorry! When I wrote the post I couldn’t figure out how to add in a link (I’m a little new to wordpress and it took me longer than it should have to work this one out!) but I have now!
Oh, great. So let’s see your work then.
Thanks, Anirudh Sent from iPad ; feel free to blame it for all the typos.
great work..i particularly liked the kitchens of calcutta…all the best, I am sure you will be read frequently, and your designs will be wonderful.
Thank you for taking the time to go through my work…and for reading.. It’s always lovely to see what people have to say. Often, it leads to wonderful conversation.
any time you would like to have a conversation anya, not always meaningful or wonderful, write in to me. and, shouldn’t you be getting some rest before setting off to work tomorrow? pardon me if i sound like an old fogey 🙂
It always inspires me to see artists speak so passionately about what drives them. I’ve looked through your posts and the desire to create change through design shines so brightly. It makes me want to reach for my own passion.
Thank you for your lovely words on this blog, and all the best for your future endeavors.

Hi Anya… great writing. I came across your work in the Kyoorius British Council publication. I looked up your page and found your email. Wrote to you but I’m hoping here I’d get a reply. 🙂 Talk Soon.
