About me

Born and raised all over the Middle East with a cross-cultural upbringing, I founded my label in 2019. My brand is built on an essentialist design philosophy, bringing you versatile products that are of the moment yet timeless, that cross boundaries and speak to people of all backgrounds in the common language of design, imagery and aesthetics.
