All in the Essence
Origins
Founded by Helen in 2006, the Nairobi-based company quickly established itself as an expert in traditional hand screen-printing. Highly passionate and strengthened by her extended background in Art History, Helen is a creative force. After decades in sales, she needed a change and applied her passion for art and design, having studied History of Art. Drawing from her expertise, she created a unique concept that sets her apart from all other editors by offering her clients a hand-crafted, made-to-order service. She targets a discerning clientele of aesthetes and connoisseurs in search of authentic exclusive artisanal craftsmanship.
Dedicated to preserving timeless crafts, Dragonfly Designs confirmed its commitment to preserving knowledge and keeping traditional techniques alive, firmly convinced that they contribute to inspiring creation and the arts in the broadest sense. Dragonfly Designs’ founder, inspired by this rich history, blends traditional techniques with contemporary flair to create vibrant and expressive prints. By honoring the legacy of screen printing pioneers, Dragonfly Designs ensures that this art form continues to inspire future generations.
