How it began
The Space was established in 2000 by a group of local designers to showcase African design, and we’re proud to say some of our very first fans are still loyal shoppers today. That’s because we believe in strong, personal relationships with both our designers and customers. It’s a philosophy that has helped us to showcase and shape the local design scene for over twenty years.
Chosen for their cutting-edge design, quality, creativity and originality, each designer represented by The Space brings an innovative approach to African fashion and we are committed to ethical working practices.
