About Us

Saba Studios is a design lab and manufacturer, founded in Lamu 2016.

Our design sensibility as a company is inspired by a rich history of Swahili crafts and design on the island. 

We collaborate with Swahili carpenters to produce Swahili inspired contemporary furniture and our manufacturing processes are sensitive to the preservation of inter-generational crafts.

All of our products are handmade from ethically and legally sourced Mvule Hardwood. Our mission is to produce contemporary furniture that highlights the rich design language of Lamu.
