Noa Ambar-Regev is a textile and surface pattern designer who designs for children’s apparel and home décor, as well as for the stationery and quilting markets.

Noa founded her studio in 2011 after completing a degree in Fashion Design with excellence. She named it PINEAPPLE, after the vibrant and uniquely-shaped fruit.

“With the birth of my first child, I became fascinated with the world of children’s apparel and home décor. My designs have since been inspired by the imaginative world of children. I create whimsical and quirky child-like motifs by hand. I like to use sharpie markers, pens, pencils and pastels for drawing black and white images. I then scan and color them digitally in vibrant colors.

When creating patterns, I am inspired by the growth process in nature and the way that small repeating details (a cell, a leaf, a feather…) create something greater and beautiful. I see pattern design the same way, as laying out small images, sketches and motifs creates a beautiful and eye catching surface.”

Noa’s surface pattern designs are available for licensing and purchasing and she is also available for freelance and custom design work.
