A glimpse into the world of Adam Court, director and designer at Okha, reveals a man in deep contemplation on the nature of creativity, and the process of design. It’s little wonder then that his creations – often seen in the world’s finest homes and galleries – possess a timeless, and indeed, almost beguiling quality.
Since joining Okha as creative director in 2007 (with a small hiatus in between), he has been a galvanising force in the South African design industry. During his tenure he has created some of the world’s most distinct, instantly-recognisable works, placing Okha firmly in the spotlight as a pioneering voice for African furniture and design. As such, Okha is a mainstay on the design circuit the world over.
