The Origin
A life shaped by vision,
independence, and creation.
Anna Unger is a multidisciplinary designer, artist, and founder whose path has been defined by an early commitment to independence and a deep, instinctive understanding of beauty, form, and human experience.
From a young age, she was immersed in art — studying in art school for over seven years and winning competitions throughout her childhood. Creativity was not a phase, but a constant foundation.
At 18, she left her family home and became fully independent. At 20, she moved alone to Moscow, where she simultaneously studied at two institutions — Moscow Architectural Institute and Moscow University of Culture and Art — while supporting herself financially and building her professional path in design.
Her career evolved rapidly across disciplines. After moving to London, she continued her education at the University of the Arts London — London College of Fashion, accepted directly into the second year. She launched her own fashion brand, presented collections internationally, and was awarded Best Young Designer at the Dubai Fashion Fiesta in 2009.
Following this recognition, she expanded into interior design and luxury residential projects — leading commissions across Dubai, Moscow, and London. In parallel, she worked as a graphic designer at Ukrainian Media Holding, the publishing company behind Vogue and Forbes Ukraine, deepening her understanding of visual storytelling and brand identity at the highest level.
Her artistic practice evolved alongside her design career. She began exhibiting her paintings internationally — across Europe, Asia, and the United States — and for over eleven consecutive years has maintained a presence at Art Basel Miami Beach, one of the world's most prestigious contemporary art events.
She became a certified freediver. She competed in international beauty pageants, earning the title of Mrs. Israel and placing as runner-up at Mrs. Globe. She raised four daughters. And at 41, she founded Desigfy — an AI-powered interior design platform built from two decades of firsthand experience inside the industry.
"Everything I've built, I've built by myself — and everything I build now, I build so others don't have to start from zero."
