Design Indulgence
atelier | 55 presents a beautifully-curated selection of sophisticated products for contemporary living. Sourced and hand-picked by Tapiwa from some of Africa’s finest design ateliers.
atelier 55 upholds the principles of true luxury - a type of luxury that is no longer defined solely by price, but rather by the 'money can't buy' attributes of time, experiences, and emotional connections.

Latest Offerings
Beautifully woven basket bags, sumptuous hammered metal lighting, soft touch textiles, and delicate patterned ceramics are some of the gorgeous finds in the atelier 55 shop. Handmade with love and exceptional attention to detail the designer/makers I partner with take pride in their craft and through their work want to share the precious skills of their heritage with discerning customers.
"I hope you will be inspired by the offerings and discover a story you love".
