MODERN PRINTED MATTER is a wholesale greeting card/stationery business created by self-taught graphic designer Anna Cote.  Anna founded Modern Printed Matter in 2005 as a creative outlet from her professional career as an environmental engineer.  It wasn't long before she realized design was her true passion and her success lead her to transition Modern Printed Matter into a full-time venture.  

Born and raised on an island off the coast of Maine, Anna is inspired by nature and bold colors.  She uses her own photography to create her modern organic illustrations.  Her stationery products are sold at over 300 retailers internationally.

The Modern Printed Matter studio is located in Rhode Island where Anna lives with her husband, baby boy, and two kitties.
