Anneasa Manna is a product design student working at the intersection of speculative design and real world impact. Her work focuses on building systems that respond to extreme constraints, often addressing underserved communities and overlooked problems.

She has led the design and development of projects ranging from ultra low cost multifunctional footwear aimed at improving mobility and safety for marginalized users, to experimental concepts like adaptive tactical systems and Water extraction and air purification devices. Her approach blends material research, structural design, and systems thinking with a strong focus on sustainability and human need.

Anneasa’s work is driven by a belief that design is not just about making things better, but about deciding what deserves to exist in the first place.
