Originally from The Gambia, Bojang founded his Naples-based homeware brand, In Casa By Paboy, during the first 2020 lockdown, hand-sewing vibrant cushion covers using locally sourced Italian cotton. Having honed his craft as a boy in his uncle’s tailoring shop, his story – marked by resilience, artistry, and migration – has captured hearts around the world.
Having followed In Casa by Paboy since he first launched, Hannah has been inspired by his journey, his beautiful designs and obvious hand craftsmanship and skill. In a world where everything is mass produced in large factories, it is so inspiring to see someone so skilled, advocating for things to be handmade, in small runs, taking time over each product. As well as connecting to his beautiful product, Hannah also found his story so inspiring. Aligning both the brands felt only natural due to the clear interest in colour, pattern and craftsmanship. Hannah wanted to create cushions from her 'Natte' fabric and Paboy has transformed them into works of art!
Each cushion features our 'Natte' fabric, a bold print inspired by Senegalese woven mats, either framed by a plain ruffle or paired with Bojang’s joyful patchwork. The fabrics are printed in a family-run mill in England and sewn by hand in Bojang’s Naples studio – each piece a testament to the beauty of craft and collaboration. See the full collection here.
