Exciting collaboration

We believe that collaboration is the key to continous innovation and have therefore teamed up with an emerging designer from the UK, Hayley Zierold. Doron, our in-house designer is working closely with Hayley on developing the signature style of Quazi Design in a new capsule collection that will be launched in 2012.

The aim of this project is for Quazi Design to offer young inspiring designers a chance to work directly with a small ethical craft company in Africa, giving them experience and a creative platform for their work. It is also a chance for Quazi Design to offer new original designs to their customers and for our woman producers to learn new skills and hopefully employ more artisans.

Hayley Zierold is a contemporary jewellery designer and artist who is inspired by the intricacy and transient state of nature. The concept of jewellery and the values relating to it are vast, for Hayley designing jewellery has become an expressive language. Hayley is interested in how she can produce ethically sound and sustainable work.

We are very excited about this collaboration and will keep you all updated on progress with samples and final products.
