My name is Joy, a Surface and Textile Designer on an /UN:afraid mission to change the narrative of the ‘African print’ by weaving modern stories inspired by the richness (landscape, culture, and elements) of Africa, to create ‘my own’ authentic Africanity content designs but still retain an awareness of current trends in design.
I create original pattern designs for the fashion, home and paper-goods market to produce timeless lifestyle and homeware collections and also provide textile, licensing and custom surface design services for the fashion, home and paper-goods retail industry.
