Who We are
Huema Design is a Ugandan design studio bringing together ideas, people, cultures and different ways of making to create objects, spaces and experiences with meaning.
Our work moves across scales; from furniture and objects to interiors, architecture, exhibitions, public spaces, graphics, digital experiences and creative direction.
We believe design is connected across every scale.
The intelligence found in a small object can inform an entire building. A material can inspire an object. An object can shape a space. A space can influence architecture. And architecture can contribute to the character of a city.
As above, so below.
Our work begins with curiosity; about people, culture, materials, craftsmanship and place. We look closely at what already exists, learn from it, experiment with it and transform that knowledge into contemporary possibilities.
We create objects of meaning and inspiring spaces that connect people to place, culture and possibility.
We simply call it—DESIGN.
Alongside the studio, we are also building HueMakers; a design-led learning and production model that enables Ugandan craftspeople to transform their knowledge and skills into contemporary products, meaningful employment and sustainable economic opportunities.
