Where Craftsmanship meets Purpose

Born out of Sebastião’s experience working with artisans and youth in the slum of Kibera (Nairobi, Kenya), the UBUNTO project aims to bridge craftsmanship and contemporary design. The project forges long-term collaborations with local artisans, empowering them through training, fair wages, and sustainable income sources.

More than a social project, UBUNTO is a creative platform: each handcrafted piece tells a story of resilience, tradition, and transformation. By merging local artistic heritage with global design sensibilities, UBUNTO seeks not only to uplift individual artisans and their communities but to reimagine what design can mean in a conscious world.

Join us in shaping a future where art, craftsmanship, and community stand together.
