Ana Kraš is a Serbian designer, photographer, creative director, and fine artist. Born and raised in Belgrade, Serbia, Kraš began her career as a student of interior architecture and furniture design at the University of Applied Arts in Belgrade. In 2008, Kraš showcased her student projects, notably a yarn-woven lamp named Bonbon, at the Salone Del Mobile in Milan. The extraordinary attention it received, from both the press and the design community, marked the start of her international career in furniture design. In 2010, Kraš relocated to Los Angeles, and by 2012, she had moved to NYC, establishing her studio in Manhattan. Over a decade, she worked on diverse projects spanning furniture and interior design, fine arts, set design, photography, and fashion. In 2021, Kraš made a transition to Paris, where her studio is currently located.
Kraš’s work is characterized by a spontaneous feeling, simple form, and an unexpected, unique color palette. A common thread running through her diverse body of work is a ‘line.’ This ‘line’ manifests in various forms, such as the repeated threads becoming a Bonbon lamp; color-changing lines in her delicate linear drawings; expressive lines in her large-scale oil stick works; and extruded lines found in her Mara furniture pieces. Her extensive range of designed products includes chairs, benches, tables, lamps, wallpapers, interiors, ceramics, textile patterns, swimwear, shoes, clothes, and set designs.
In 2024, alongside her partner Ruben Moreira, Kraš founded ‘Teget,’ her lifestyle brand, where she integrates all her skills to create a universe of homeware and fashion products.
