About Us

 

MISSION

To elevate and support as many artists, designers and craftspeople – and the cultures they represent – as possible, in order to ensure their voice is powerful and present in the global creative conversation.

We do this through cultural COLLABORATIONS in which we bring difference together to create new COLLECTIONS of objects, furniture, artwork and more.

 

We do this through our inclusive event SPACE in Marylebone showing that art can originate anywhere and is for everyone.

We do this through our SHOP in which the reach and cultural impact of diverse voices is spread, in turn helping their communities to thrive.

 

We do this through our CONSULTANCY making it easy for anyone to collaborate with diverse art, design and craftspeople from across the globe.

 

 

PURPOSE

To create, protect and celebrate the future heritage of diverse cultures around the world.

 

VISION

At SoShiro we want to be the leading destination for nurturing our artistic and cultural diversity, a key driver of positive social change. We’ll do this by elevating art, design and craft from all corners of the globe and by providing a pioneering collaborative platform for expression, education, and connection.
