‘Yes Hello, I would like to report another boring brand on the internet.’ WHAT A HOOK!! It’s on an Ad that I keep seeing from a specific Brandist I’m in love with. Gosh I’m so obsessed with reverse branding

Thank you for seeing, and feeling, the story behind the jacket. Accessibility, storytelling, and dignity are at the heart of what we do. Grateful for the love
You see this dope jacket? Looks good Yes, but it feels even better when you know the story behind it. It’s Made by @HisiStudio , who create adaptive clothing for the visually impaired. The markings read: “The less we see with our eyes, the more we see with our hearts.” #InclusiveDesign #AdaptiveFashion #MadeInKenya #DesignForAll

Fun is found in creation. One of the highlights we had at the just concluded #InclusionFest2025 is this braille board challenge game by @HisiStudio. Both the seeing and blind got a chance to come up and create words on the braille board. How many words do you think...

Karibu to CIRCLES & DOTS Your next statement isn’t spoken—it’s stitched. Each kimono carries a circle. Each dots carries a message. Circles or Dots is fashion as empathy. #LimitedEdition #CollectorPieces #ThreadsOfInclusion #AdaptiveFashion #BrailleClothing

How do people with visual impairments experience fashion? For Wanjiku Angela, the answer led to Hisi Studio. An inclusive fashion brand creating adaptive clothing with Braille labels, tactile patterns, and QR code tags. Her designs give people independence and choice in what they wear.

Looking forward to the upcoming session 🇰🇪
@NAssemblyKE is back from recess on Tuesday 17th September, where debate will begin on the consideration of my Learners With Disabilities Bill, 2023. I want to see Kenya bring the education of learners with disabilities to parity with all learners and end the exclusion of learners with disabilities from the traditional education system that many of us PWDs struggled through. The most recent version of the Bill is here: parliament.go.ke/sites/defau…

Disability inclusion conversations are heavy & not always the easiest to start. However, they are incredibly essential to have. Within our space in design, we are initiating these through PLAY. Introducing our updated SISI WOTE: INTERACTIVE BRAILLE PLAY Board
