(Overview)

Brand, marketplace and seller dashboard for a collective of 120 Rwandan artisans selling to buyers abroad.

(The problem)

Soko's artisans made baskets, ceramics and textiles that sold out at local fairs, but buyers abroad couldn't find them. The few who could were put off by blurry photos and no way to pay by card.

Each product page tells the maker's story alongside the object.

(The solution)

I built a warm, editorial brand around the people behind the work. Sellers list products from their phone with guided photo tips, and the storefront puts the maker's story next to every item.
