In 1999, Anna established Viola Design as a conduit for purpose-driven work. As Design Director, she is the driving force behind the studio’s strong identity and warm client relationships. Her love of educating and motivating fellow designers and businesses about sustainable design has yielded a book or three – the most recent being 365 Nature (2015), a nature-inspired book that has been translated into ten languages. Design, sustainability, social change and photography have all taken her to the ends of the earth and back. Whether lecturing in Chile, photographing in Timor Leste or climbing Mt Kilimanjaro – Anna seeks her passions far and wide, and is always looking forward to the next adventure.
