Patterns that tell a story.

I’m Anna Svoboda, the designer behind Motifany. My work explores surface design as a way to bring meaning and atmosphere to everyday objects. From stand-alone patterns to curated collections, each piece is created with intention and care.

Ayurvedic Florals Collection

Inspired by Ayurveda and its grounding, warming principles, this collection reflects a slower, more intentional rhythm of life.

Designed for stationery like diaries and journals, the patterns draw from Ayurvedic plants and are meant to feel nurturing, rich, and calming rather than purely decorative.

Garden Lake Minicollection

Inspired by Art Nouveau, this mini collection explores a lake in the garden filled with intricate insect life.
