Life of a Designer

The life of a designer is a life of fight. Fight against the ugliness. Just like a doctor fights against disease. For us, the visual disease is what we have around, and what we try to do is cure it somehow with design.

WOW!

Design is the contrast of the core of limitations therefore there are no boundaries. 
It is simply an interpretation of creativity.

 There are three responses to a piece of design – yes, no, and WOW! Wow is the one 
to aim for.

FABRIC BAGS..

Design should never say, “Look at me.” It should always say, “Look at this.”
The Kitenge fabric gives you that unique individuality that sets you apart.

FABRIC BAGS

Truly elegant design incorporates top-notch functionality into a simple, uncluttered form.

 The design process, at its best, integrates the aspirations of art, science, and culture.

URBAN WARRIOR COLLECTION

The Urban Warrior collections exploits the Kenyan shuka (Fabric) synonymous with the Maasai, combined with high quality plain cow leather to bring you the exciting adventures of the Maasai Moran in a unique and contemporary way. The bags are designed to accommodate the kind of flexibility and agility required to offer convenience in the modern day social and professional environment


EMPORROI COLLECTION

The Emporroi Collection brings you that aura of personalization in an African way, each bead at a time. Beads are an important part of East African heritage, where they continue to serve as status symbols and mediums of communication. We share with you this beautiful heritage through our high quality, uniquely designed collection that is encoded with messages through the beaded African symbols and patterns on high quality cow or camel leather. What a better way to set your self apart.


KITO COLLECTION

Nothing makes an ethnic fashion statement better than mud-cloth. That is why we design the Kito collection out of high quality hand woven mud-cloth and high quality plain cow leather. These products are out to make a distinct high profile ethnic expression while appreciating the importance of quality and function.
Since mud cloth is hand decorated, no two pieces look just alike. This therefore provides you that unique individuality that sets you apart.


CEKUT COLLECTION

Our Cekut Cowboy collection offers you that rugged vintage look ideal for a demanding lifestyle. These high quality suede cow leather bags are embellished with Maasai discs, recycled cow bone and buttons, hand made metal pieces or simply hand laced, to add an ethnic Africa dimension to this easy wear collection.

ANANSE COLLECTION

The Ananse clutch collection that is made from high quality plain cow or camel leather embellished with brass and aluminium decorations is designed for the outgoing and vivacious individual that is not shy to make a bold statement on what life has to offer, but in stylishly unique way.
The above personality is brought to life through the application of the African symbol Ananse that stands for creativity and wisdom. This symbol is combined with a spiral that represents the perpetual motion of life. Hence presenting a picture of life as endless evolutionary process bound with the cycles of time. Although each loop of the spiral brings us back to the same place, it takes to a higher and more evolved level guided by the wisdom and creativity in Ananse.

PAPITA COLLECTION

The Papita collection is carefully handcrafted for those who prefer that subtle rustic feel blended in a safari atmosphere. Products in this range are made out of high quality combination of plain and hair-on cow leather. This choice of materials provides these products with that unique and edgy look for those that want to distinguish themselves.

Design.

People think that design is styling. Design is not style. It’s not about giving shape to the shell and not giving a damn about the guts. Good design is a renaissance attitude that combines technology, cognitive science, human need, and beauty to produce something that the world didn’t know it was missing.
