A Commitment of Asbon Empowerment Foundation

Supporting Emerging Designers

Championing the next generation of African creative talent — giving new designers a platform, mentors and the visibility they deserve.

What this means in practice

Too many gifted African designers never get past the first door. We open that door. We create room for new voices — through fellowships, atelier access, mentorship from working designers, and a stage to show their work to a wider community.

How Asbon approaches it

Founder Osei Asibey Bonsu and the atelier team work directly alongside emerging designers — from first sketches to finished collection. We share studio space, contacts, technique and honest feedback, and invite young designers to present alongside Asbon at community showcases.

Designer spotlights — coming soon

This is where we'll share stories of the designers we support: who they are, what they make, and where their work takes them next. Have a designer we should know? Tell us through the Foundation contact form.
