A stationery lover from a young age, I was the girl who spent all of her pocket money on new notebooks and pens. 15 years ago, I was looking for beautiful stationery but could not find anything that I liked which had a contemporary nod to my culture and reflected my appreciation of art and different lifestyles.

A stationery lover from a young age, I was the girl who spent all of her pocket money on new notebooks and pens. 15 years ago, I was looking for beautiful stationery but could not find anything that I liked which had a contemporary nod to my culture and reflected my appreciation of art and different lifestyles.
Travelling between London, Mumbai, Paris and Jersey from an early age, taught me a deep appreciation of beauty, fine art and diversity of inspiration. I have always been fascinated by different cultures and their heritage, colours, designs and symbols. This cultural mix has always influenced my way of thinking and permeates elegantly throughout my collections for Ananya.
I worked in my family business for three years before starting my first business Creative ID, a design, branding and marketing consultancy. In 2006, I launched Ananya.
