Meet Your Host

Tapiwa Matsinde

Founder of atelier 55

I started atelier 55 to share the work of Africa’s exceptional designers, makers and artisans. I am fascinated by the stories behind their work and the journeys these creatives have taken to turn their talents into thriving businesses.

As a writer, curator and consultant, I get to interview countless artisan business owners. Their stories offer up valuable tips so by setting up the Behind the Design podcast they get to share some of that experience with you too.

I hope you enjoy the episodes!
