Une collection des plus distinctifs

IKHAYA signifie foyer. Pour nous, le foyer n'est pas seulement un lieu, mais un sentiment de connexion, de familiarité et d'appartenance. C'est ce qui nous ramène en Afrique du Sud, ce qui inspire les pièces que nous choisissons, et ce que nous espérons partager à travers IKHAYA.

Shaped by Africa

South Africa has always been home for Zeane. Having spent most of her life there, she has a deep connection to its people, its creative spirit and its distinctive sense of individuality. With a background in fashion, styling and trend forecasting, her career has centred on the relationship between design, culture and the way we choose to express ourselves.


Julien is Parisian by birth, but we won’t hold that against him (wink) and after more than a decade in South Africa, his heart belongs to the green and gold. His experience in retail and consulting makes him the strategic mind behind IKHAYA, bringing commercial vision and business acumen to our venture.


Together, we founded IKHAYA after a visit home left us captivated by the artistry and authenticity of the independent brands we represent. We wanted to share their work with Switzerland, introducing not only their designs, but also the women behind them and the communities they support.

Discover pieces with presence

For us, it has always been about more than the pieces themselves. It is about the people, the values and the sense of belonging that connect us to them. It is about celebrating the hands and minds behind the work, supporting the communities they are part of, and sharing something of the country we love with the place we now call home.


And then, of course, there is Scotch. Our beloved French Bulldog and self appointed Head of Security, responsible for overseeing stock and remaining deeply suspicious of the postman.
