We encourage  businesses to follow @VandAWaterfront example to create more income-generating opportunities for local artisans & designers.When we curated #100BeautifulBaskets we showcased the incredible weaving talent that exists across Africa & celebrated sustainable production.

We are skilled at marrying history with modernity. When SA’s oldest wine estate @GrootConstantia commissioned us to develop products & help design its new retail store, we created a welcoming space curated with locally made products. #shoplocal #SouthAfricanDesign

We still get excited to see images from #PictureAfrica, an exhibition we curated in 2016 that explored contemporary African textiles through the lens of artists, stylists & photographers which included images & fabrics from across the continent.

It's vital that we conserve our country's heritage. Big institutions can lead the way by creatively engaging with audiences. We were commissioned by @SAMint to launch its coin museum, visitor centre & store. Go and check it out!

We are community creators with a thriving network of talent. We connect creatives to corporate businesses so that organisations can appeal to their markets in more inspiring ways, as is testament in our #8TravellingTotems project in collaboration with @VandAWaterfront

Selecting local products for the country's most prestigious museum store is the responsible way to curate retail in South Africa. Our ongoing work for @ZeitzMOCAA has us constantly developing design-related items, unique gifts & take-home products relevant to art-loving visitors

When we curated the #YoungGauteng exhibition in association with @visitgauteng our aim was to promote the next generation of designers & makers who will grow the province's creative economy. Textile designer Lesego Maloka of #PoneCreatives was 1 of the 10 young talents showcased.

Platform is passionate about Africa & the work we do demonstrates that creative studios on the continent are among the best in the world. @designafric has presented many talks about design trends in Africa and is a sought-after expert in the field of contemporary African culture.

[Platform @Platform_SA]

We believe in promoting an inclusive & sustainable design industry & wish for more organisations to use the creative talent we have in SA to grow these industries. For #WeAreJoburg & #WeAreCapeTown exhibitions we brought old & young names in the cities' design industries together

Post-pandemic tourism in Cape Town… How do we invite people back into one of the world's most beautiful cities?
 Platform developed the #100BeautifulExperiences campaign for @VandAWaterfront to attract visitors to this exciting part of the city through videography & illustration

[Platform @Platform_SA]

The @loeries Grand Prix & @basa_news Innovation Award we share with @VandAWaterfront are testament to #JoyFromAfrica being a movement of change & compassion; providing annual jobs to SA’s creative community & how community-driven design to retail spaces can shift perspectives.

What drew us to work on #MakersLanding was its vision to build a community of locally inspired food entrepreneurs who believe in making good food affordable to more people.

@StandardBankZA Thank you for the feedback. I’ll do so now.

[Cher Chisholm @cher176]

Shocking that you can’t get hold of a @StandardBankZA branch directly without any hassles. Contacted the call centre, but what happens when the call centre can’t help and the branch calls just keep getting cut? Helluva telephone bill is right! #annoyed

Colour can influence mental health & well-being. That's why all of
our projects is led by a carefully considered colour palette. A curated exhibition in association with @PlasconSA #100%Colour,
demonstrated our appreciation of different hues &
combining colours to create impact.
