Anna is an experienced Printed Textile Designer, she studied Textile Design at Nottingham Trent, graduating in 2001. Originally from Newcastle, she moved to Oxford in 2005 and now lives in Jericho with her partner and three children.

She has worked in the fashion industry for 20 years, spending more than half of that time as a freelance designer. Her clients include M&S, Monsoon, Oliver Bonas and currently, Anthropologie.

Anna launched Jericho Design House in 2017. “I always wanted to have my own brand, but was so used to working to a design brief for others, I wasn't entirely sure what it would look like! It took time for me to realise that the adaptability I'd learnt as a freelance designer could be my unique selling point as a brand.

So after my third child began nursery, in a period where I was looking for new freelance work, I just started drawing, painting and collaging. I created a diverse range of designs for every room and purpose in my home - for the kids, living, dining and garden and I wanted all those areas to have their own distinct feel!”

This is Anna‘s first solo exhibition.
