They are incredibly beautiful – as wild as north Africa.

Inspired by this tradition, we set out to tame the beast and create a subtly rustic square in a colour palette tuned to Australian tastes. We named it Juma to celebrate its African heritage. It means “Born on a Friday” from Arabic and Swahili which happened  to be the day it was created.
