ABOUT

Yinka Ilori Objects is forging a space where meaningful objects can inspire people to dream, feel and create.

A continuation of multidisciplinary artist Yinka Ilori’s work, each piece weaves in Yinka’s personal experiences and memories. New stories are told through limited edition collectibles and everyday objects.

Underpinned in the belief that art and design should be accessible to all, each object is meticulously designed not just to adorn your home but to endure the test of time, becoming heirlooms shared across generations.

Influenced by his Nigerian and British roots, Yinka continues to honour the beauty of his parent’s heritage and the cherished memories from his childhood. It’s the stories his parents have shared with him that have profoundly shaped his worldview – from his love of affirmations to his admiration for the colours and shapes that surround us in everyday life – his perspective is a mosaic of cultural influences. Each project that Yinka takes on amplifies his vision, bringing together communities and evoking joy.

During lockdown when many of us were unable to travel and visit family, Yinka brightened London with a series of vibrant billboards. Messages like "LOVE ALWAYS WINS" in Harrow and "IF YOU CAN DREAM ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE" in Finsbury Park, served as beacons of light, kindness and hope, inspiring the launch of Yinka Ilori Objects. Yinka’s very first creation under the label was a pair of colourful socks.

With craftsmanship at the forefront of Yinka Ilori Objects, Yinka and his creative team collaborate with artisans not only in the UK, but also Portugal, Nepal and beyond. Each piece is meticulously crafted to live in your home for years, evolving into treasured legacies passed down through time.
