About Us

O U R   S T O R Y

It started with a passion for home décor and a love for locally produced handcrafted products. 

As a creative myself, I know what goes into handmade goods and have always had an appreciation for art and handcrafted items. While I always had an interest in home decorating and interior styling, it was only after restyling my living room for the 8th time that I realised how passionate I was about home décor. Subsequently, I found myself searching for unique, locally crafted homeware. 

With so many talented designers, artists and creatives, I was urged to create a platform which would support, celebrate and showcase locally manufactured and handcrafted South African products. 

With this goal, Yellow Door started sourcing niche home décor, homeware and lifestyle products from local creators in 2021 to promote supporting local businesses. With an appreciation for art and modern aesthetics in mind, our product range showcases African talent and aims to bring life to your home through simple pleasures.

It was in 2024 when Yellow Door's journey took a new turn. Armed with a postgraduate degree in Clothing Retail from the University of Pretoria in South Africa, and a deep-rooted love for luxurious styles, I drew inspiration from my personal journey and embarked on a mission to curate Yellow Door's first wardrobe collection.

Yellow Door encompasses all aspects of life, from home décor and furniture, to niche lifestyle products, delicatessen and clothing, we offer distinctive crafts from local designers, creatives and makers here in South Africa. 

Through craftsmanship, textiles, colour pallets and idiosyncratic design. 

By collaborating with local creatives, Yellow Door offers unique décor, interior and lifestyle products under one roof making it easy to find unique products while supporting local. 

Yellow Door celebrate the essence of South African craftsmanship and our home collection stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment to supporting local artisans, showcasing exclusively South African creations that reflect the rich tapestry of our nation's talent. However, as we have extended our collection to include clothing, we want to be transparent about the global origins of our garments. While our clothing line incorporates imported pieces, we take great pride in the fact that each garment undergoes a transformative journey at a South African artelier. This final touch not only ensures quality and attention to detail but also infuses each piece with a distinctive local flair.
