Embracing South African roots with RAKGADI Interior Range

 Connecting the past and present with style

South Africa’s vibrant heritage deserves to be celebrated every day, and the newly launched Kim Williams RAKGADI African Toile Interior Range powerfully encapsulates this essence. First unveiled at Decorex Cape Town in 2024, the range was born from the dynamic collaboration between acclaimed fashion designer Jessica Jane Molebatsi and esteemed Cape Town based interior designer Kim Williams.

The collection, inspired by the essence of togetherness and the powerful role of South African women in our lives, beautifully blends the rich symbolism of local culture with modern design, showcasing a commitment to community, heritage, and beauty. Part of the stunning selection of home décor items includes elegant placemats designed to instantly elevate any table setting, along with a beautifully crafted carpet collection in partnership with Airloom.


“Working with Jessica Jane has been a dream for me. Our synergy reflects a shared love for South African symbolism and the importance of community, and each piece captures a deep appreciation for South African artistry, bringing a mindful touch to modern living spaces. The RAKGADI African Toile print interior range embodies our belief that everyone’s home should be filled with meaningful, cultural elements that resonate with their history and heritage,” comments Kim.

Among the standout items in the RAKGADI African Toile print interior range there are a selection of disposable placemats, luxurious cushions, and an upcoming wallpaper collaboration with renowned designer Robin Sprong. These pieces serve not only as décor but also as conversation starters that tell the story of our roots and the vibrancy of our communities.

“Art should not only exist in galleries but should also grace our homes and with this collection, we aim to inspire and celebrate the craftsmanship found within our borders while offering affordable, beautiful pieces of art for every space and home,” added Kim.

A design and décor destination
