Last week on Thursday night, I was invited to a private online viewing on Vimeo of the ‘one-shot’ music video dubbed “Labelled Human”, a collaboration with an eclectic group of young Kenyan musicians: Clef Bandana; Bakhita; Sogallo and Caleb, with production by Phinoshey.

It showcases the basketball court restoration, murals, community exhibition, ‘The Urban Residency’, and accessibility features created during the festival which has been published as a case study called ‘Paint The Court’ on Nairobi Design Week (NDW) website.

NDW is essentially a community, festival and design studio that celebrates the Kenyan design community.)

The theme was ‘Design is for Everyone’ and involved a week of jam sessions, mural painting and other design activities.
