ADÈLE DEJAK – African shapes and textures for the modern woman.

Born in Kano, Nigeria and brought up in Cambridge England, Adèle is a graduate in Typographic Design at the London College of Printing and a member of the International Society of Typographic Designers. She has developed her multiple artistic interests in the UK and Italy, where she established her studio in Rome and worked as the Art Director of the best-selling Italian Pop Magazine.

Adèle Dejak moved to Nairobi in 2005, where she pursued her artistic interests by painting. She then turned her attention to jewellery design. At first it was just a sideline but a chance meeting at a dinner party with an organiser of one of Kenya’s most popular design and craft shows admired one of her creations and encouraged her to start a business. Thus, Magik Grace Art and Design Ltd was founded in 2005. From semi-abstract objects on canvas, she moved to the abstract creation of shapes to wear. She is always striving to give shape to a style reminiscent of the most essential cutting-edge contemporary designs; by resorting to European and African materials which she collects during her travels. Having a background in typographic design has helped her create the form and structure to her jewellery.

Adèle Dejak is a brand-new dynamic brand that creates simple cutting edge fashion accessories  looking for a sophisticated but hip outfit! It is a brand that has its roots in the heart of Kenya. Here, stunning cutting- edge contemporary designs are created for all those stylish women looking for unique, contemporary accessories.

Adèle’s creations are in continuous development, moulding together her never-ending quest for an essential artifact which would enhance the personality of the woman who wears it.

Adèle set up shop in Nairobi at the Village Market in 2009 and in Lamu. She combines her restless creativity with contemporary materials to produce iconic and stunning body art that simply cannot go unnoticed.
