Anna Badur

Berlin, GERMANY

“What if one could capture the volatile, ephemeral nature of water – its flowing, boisterous and ever-changing character? The billowing waves, drops and puddles, suspended in time. Organic textures and shades, burned into archetypal, durable forms, becoming at once elegantly timeless and objects of everyday beauty.”

Anna Badur studied at the renowned Design Academy in Eindhoven. She has received multiple awards and prizes, and her work has been exhibited at several museums and international design events.

Badur’s Blue Sunday series is part of the permanent collection of the National Museum of Decorative Arts and Design in Trondheim. Badur grew up in East Frisia on the North Sea, and her work testifies to a deep engagement with the sea, nature and the strong influences of the weather. Today the designer lives and works in Berlin, and she cooperates with craftsmen, architects, shops, restaurateurs and companies worldwide.

Anna started working with porcelain already during her studies and deeply dived into the material during two residencies in two porcelain manufactories right after her Master of Art degree. The second residency was at the German porcelain manufacturer KAHLA and resulted in a long lasting cooperation.
