Masha Knop — Saint Petersburg, Russia

“I honestly believe, that despite being repetitive, each pattern should tell its own story, since graphical elements combined without any thought won’t influence a viewer’s mind.”

Masha Knop is a Russian-born graphic designer who splits her time between Saint Petersburg and New York. She graduated from Saint Petersburg state university with a master’s degree in design. Web and graphic design are her main spheres of interest. Lines, angles, open colours, a clear message and simplicity are her main means of expression. And a strong love of architectural principles shines through her unique graphic style.
