Illustrator Anna Kövecses applies her minimalist style to editorial commissions

Date

It’s been over a year since we last checked in with Hungarian illustrator Anna Kövecses and it’s great to see her friendly style being featured in weighty publications like The New York Times Magazine and Monocle. Anna’s naive cut out-like illustrations are still a joy to behold, with warm colour palettes of greens, blues and browns combined with simply formed silhouettes that stay on the right side of cute. Her series Diagnosis for The New York Times Magazine is a particular favourite as Anna’s malady-laden characters illustrate recreated medical cases from the past in a straightforward, but creative manner.
