Lagos Space Programme


Adeju Thomson, founder of Lagos Space Programme in 2018, presents“Rock and Roll Consciousness,” a collection that draws on the nostalgic experience of growing up in Lagos and discovering music as a means of self-expression. The collection is clean and minimal, yet brimming with cultural depth. Adeju Thomson fuses music, Nigerian codes, aesthetics, and Yoruba traditions to craft a narrative that breaks boundaries, cultural and artistic frontiers, and forges connections that shape history.

Adeju reimagines Yoruba traditions, incorporating weaving and natural dyeing through a modern, genderless lens. He masterfully blends heritage with innovation, working with natural fibers and locally sourced textiles. The medallions are a subtle homage to Yoruba spirituality and storytelling, weaving meaning and tradition into every piece.

Adeju Thomson reminds us that the future of design begins with honoring the past.
