Meet Anna Treliving, a self-taught surface pattern designer based in Nottingham, UK, whose world is bursting with bold shapes, bright colours, and infectious joy.

Whether it's a cushion, art print, or homeware accessory, her pieces have a warmth and energy that speaks to her joy in creating. It’s this sense of play and passion that makes Anna’s work resonate with pattern lovers far and wide.
For Anna, designing isn’t just a profession—it’s a way of sharing joy. She’s at her happiest when surrounded by colour and pattern, and her mission is simple: to bring a little of that joy into other people’s lives. Through her bold, beautiful designs, Anna Treliving reminds us that good design doesn’t have to be serious—it just has to make you smile.
