9:32 pm
land and its natural state and undisturbed, creating a sense of belonging for home owners and for a beautiful view of the landscape. but before we move on to the nitty gritty plot of the house and how this farm addresses sustainability, let's visit kenya to see how one woman's vision enables the detailed work of crop. then to move into the latest must have accessory our bags a carry, everything we do is hon. with those no machine. erica cause known for her concept store in nairobi, has since 2020 brought new hand crafted luxury bags on to the market. wanting to work with linda, she had collaborated with moses a creek creating the 7 different bespoke handcrafted bags. i came
9:33 pm
up with a carry, the hon crafted leather bugs because when i looked at the market, i understood that i wanted to make a bug. the walls pick of the african continent without going to put i evolved to becoming a designer because i was working with the 2 kind of women for roughly 2 to 3 years . and i liked the the weaving. so the weaving is very different from other puts in kenya. with here we are, we, are they a workshop? erica, here is of every. and this is like us in business relationship where it works perfectly. we work in harmony. bugging is a bug to make the bug, you require materials. they write material, well, identically your book. but when they get that material, i come with it. then i apply the die. isolate the material,
9:34 pm
then i start doing this teaching, go cut as on teaching g. in go in and bind this material from the tannery, it's usually these color. and then to comes to me, i try and make it look appealing. i apply the die, you know, then it becomes like these in anybody memorial to makes me happy and gives me hope to see that acutely appreciates what i do for her. it can make me want to improve on this product and get it clean. this piece of metal, easy to move in the edges of the material after us teach it. so this is like the finished product where we'll do the other liver to hold these are the beadwork is done by them of 5 people. then he's going to make the day the
9:35 pm
purchase of the, of watched earlier than to the teaching and then it comes to these products. so that is role that is almost done. then you get here. you can see them. ok, that is almost done because the, the kaufman has cuts them, but these process is the most difficult. so we said it takes a lot of days because can do that. we have a mold, but to have a mold reuse of cultures. so it's old culture is before we part these and then it becomes a more everything you hundreds. and you linda sun white's luxury because it's somebody's sweat and in everything is too detailed me ah,
9:36 pm
the collection is for ever. but also at the same time, my bug was created for the people who are cultured there a week. and they still want to keep the tradition for themselves. as you can see, it takes roughly 18 days to finish the collection. it's basically a piece of home anyway, go and the fact that it's made in canada, mexico more with it and it's, it's quite, it's quite interesting and quite african and i can way to the anything. my favorite aspect is the face, the face looks like it's going from a traditional aspect of storytelling to the future. that's my most favorite part about it. creating these, it's everything i wake up in the morning. i live with it. so it's constantly, not just having very constantly new mind, like what really prove,
9:37 pm
what am i missing fashion and function, my absolute favorite. and that is what every max is all about. the new generation shaking up what creativity is all about. we travel to kigali to visit design, matthew, regard to see what he is all about. one of the things i'm trying to do right now is to create the dress code for the modern african men. matthew gamba has changed how many men view fashion in wonder. the classic clothing silhouette that he create in latino sky reflect on the path and shape the present and fashion. when i started, the idea was to court to, to, to create that bridge between you know, traditional west formal where and african formal where, and trying to trans what, what is it, what would it look like?
9:38 pm
because the reality is, colonialism was a big part of our history is a, it's, it's either it's had an impact into the way we function as, as society today. but we also have to sort of create a new image, a new outlook on so many aspects of, of the way we do things. the whole idea was i was trying to find a bridge between you know, i guess traditional british tailoring and african fashion and traditional where and part of the reason i wanted to do that because that is part of my identity. it's part of my upbringing, i was actually born in the u. k, and i lived there for a couple of years. i was also, i also went back after high school to work there during my formative years. and all these experiences sort of build into who i am today. so this is one of our
9:39 pm
new newer should we thought that we wanted to have something that was a bit subtle. no loved prince. but what we wanted to do was to me to make it a bit richer by adding embroider details. ah. but matthew will gone, but is not only known for its elegant and excellence and taylor, but also his bow tie phenomenon. the 1st house of 2 products that we created were the titans scoff infiniti scoff. and some of the reasons i did that was purely because i had no experience as a fashion designer. and it made sense to start with, with smaller pieces accessories. i knew i eventually wanted to do full outfits, but it made sense to start with accessories. i got into men's fashion,
9:40 pm
primarily. hands him a man and it's, it's easy for me. i started to create what i felt. i didn't see. and i will, i always test items when we create a sample word for a couple of days to see where the issues are. i talked to our customers, i talked to where even just family members, people who buy our products, trying to understand what issues they might have russia for me as a form of self expression. it is a way of telling, telling someone a budget of the might be your lifestyle. it might be the way you work. it might be your preferences. it might be, it's a form of identity. i feel that even people who claim not to be interested in fashion make particular choices based on on so many things that tell a story about their life. there is no doubt that matthews reputation has
9:41 pm
a top one. and fashion icon is one that has been hard earned and well deserved. his effortless sense of style aside, he is dedicated to building up the fashion community. he works with local artisans and tailors and provides his team of 21, a stable income, employment opportunities. you have to be and i have to be very intentional about the impact on our society and our community. we really endeavor to look at the whole ecosystem of, of, of the way we work and, and who like what goes in to the shirts. you see here, and there are so many parts and i and they, we have to, as a team, we try to, to be quite conscious about that. so it's really about innovation and it's about investing in innovation. it has to be part of our, our business model, to look at new ways of doing things. matthews unique designs showcase african
9:42 pm
fashion and sophistication with a refreshing modern twist. because use of locally made materials and accessories tell the story of his personal goal to take who want and fashion to the world. news i'm here where modern farm living is attracting many families to set out their home . with me today is gillian hole, from felt architect who be taking me through this wonderful masterpiece of a house. it's great and dark house. now the 1st thing i noticed as i walked in is the view when you enter is incredible. yes, we are incredibly privilege to have designed in this amazing space, and it has a view of the northwest by conservancy mountains which are absolutely gorgeous. we try and integrate buildings as much as possible with
9:43 pm
a natural landscape. in this particular house we created ruth gordon. so we took the landscape that we actually disrupted, and we put it on top of the half. and we introduced indigenous landscape through act because it detracts all the booth and the natural for not. and flora of me in environment. the orientation of the house plays a very big role. so orient sites incorrect to the north, just off north for how thing is important. it's such a simple principle, but it makes a very big difference in the energy efficiency of your building. we've got a system in the house that's integrated that catches all the water and goes to a central underground water tank. and from the it's pumped into all the water systems in the ha and circulated. now before we move on to the art and design of this chunk home, we taken with 10 that she dora, who moved seamlessly between phone and digital photography as a photographer. as
9:44 pm
a visual artist, i have the responsibility to bring an aesthetic around black people to be able to bring in accuracy to the story, to being the beauty that comes out from being black, contemporary african photography through the lens of them. bob, when born south african based photographer, had said that, should laura is a visual exploration of what it means to be african and black today? sometime a fashion photographer, fine art photographer, commercial photographer. but i'm a visual story teller. i love telling stories through photographs. we paint through light and that's what basically photography is through the lens collective. i'm going to be developing some film today for shit that i did. a few weeks ago. my phone is black here. that's like people say
9:45 pm
there's and magnification that i place on flex going as an individual with these days a glorification. there's a celebration, and there's a beauty that i'm trying to translate with with the, with, with black skin and black subject, and also translating other stories of identity in it have often been criticized of having to sit in the election of subjects. it's either there to black, with a person with oven, and especially when it comes to my conceptual work. in a false paste world deadlines, more to digital, to tend to works mainly with digital photography that installed your timelessness of photography still makes it an attractive medium of her in
9:46 pm
a fixer, the fixer fixes the image onto the phone so that it doesn't rub off to become permanent onto the phone. my preference is always so there is a beauty also that comes with great. i always say to people that digital is to try to match phone. you have film grades that people put over digital images. so there's still something that is authentic and role when it comes to film photography. and from a creative perspective, it's much longer process. but i feel like film allows you as an individual to think through the process. you have 36 or 12 live in a rule of thumb, so it constricts you from from wasting. so that allows you as an individual,
9:47 pm
to be able to be more a ticket to be more concentrated, to be more focused. whereas with digital, it's instant, it's immediate and you shoot and look with this till you see it, and then on form, it will only see it after comes from the lab. when you see the after a process that day take a form photography carried out on a traditional handprint. something to tend to appreciate though he can develop for himself. he requires the services of dennis the silva, the only remaining hind photo printer in the country. the longevity of images printed on phone paper is much, much longer than digital printed prints. so there's always a beauty in having a handprint because it was carefully, carefully done this as a beautiful touch to it. and having it, as the handprint was much, much young guy used to cut out images from my mother's magazines. i always used to
9:48 pm
live there for like a school project in collage and put them in, in scrapbooks. so from there i, i did good a subliminal visual library and i've always had an interest in in photographs. and then when i had the privilege of going to university, i went and i studied photography. the difference between commercial work and conceptual work is commercial work is always there to feed a certain market. today we are into we're doing sheets look for shit for thought african street. we're friends when an open field and they took a grand beautiful texas prop and yeah, so much fun. so we creating to learn in a certain type of people sit in viewership,
9:49 pm
serving a certain market. so everything is always controlled and then conceptual work, which is mostly my style of photography, especially in my, in my, in my personal work. so they, it's thought ideas, experiences, expressions, staging all of that up and recreating it and translating it in the way that i would have perceived it as, as a photographer. the special thing about this generation of african photographers is we have the ability to express ourselves. there is freedom. i think the word is also listening to our stories. they are now keen or so just to hear the new narrative of,
9:50 pm
of art. now we have an opportunity to be able to control our stick to be able to control our story, to also be able to control our narrative as black people. ah ah, now jillian, i know that with this house you had to accommodate 2 living areas as the 2 sisters sharing this house, which makes us quite unique and different. tell me a bit more about that. so these are the internal community area where they entertain and get together. and then these, the more private units on the sides. actually while we were building, they picked up some stones on the site and we created this beautiful artwork. that was the custom made design that shows and signifies the convergence of the 2 sisters coming together. it was commissioned and done by
