Kenya's @HisiStudio makes inclusive fashion you can feel! In addition to #braille on garments, each piece has a QR code with fabric and care instructions to accommodate #blind and #VisuallyImpaired customers. #BlindNewWorld (Story via @GoodGoodGood โฌ‡๏ธ) goodgoodgood.co/articles/braโ€ฆ

Fun is found in creation. One of the highlights we had at the just concluded #InclusionFest2025 is this braille board challenge game by @HisiStudio. Both the seeing and blind got a chance to come up and create words on the braille board. How many words do you think...

How do people with visual impairments experience fashion? For Wanjiku Angela, the answer led to Hisi Studio. An inclusive fashion brand creating adaptive clothing with Braille labels, tactile patterns, and QR code tags. Her designs give people independence and choice in what they wear.
