It’s Decorex Cape Town time from Thursday 25 April to Sunday 28 April and we can’t wait for the plethora of home eye-candy. One of our highlights is always the Cape Craft and Design Institute stand with its diverse range of quirky wares.
A not-for-profit organization with a mandate to support local makers, the, this year the Cape Craft and Design Institute (CCDI) has funded 12 individual stands, as well as compiling a large collective shop representing the work of 35 Western Cape designers and artists. “A total of 66 applications was received for participation in the CCDI collective shop, of which 35 were selected,” said Doreen Hendricks of the CCDI. “Fifty enterprises applied for individual stands, of which 12 were selected.”
The original products include unique up-to-the-minute homeware, fashion accessories, ceramics, drinking glasses, vases and lanterns made from upcycled bottles. The individual stands have been allocated to Andrea Duell Ceramics, Artvark Gallery, Booth Studios, Indigi Designs, Kula Maliakha Foundation, love milo, Overberg Bottle Craft, Professional Wireworks, Sharon B Design, Succulent Oasis, African Queen studio and Yilasophia.
