Faheema Patel

Founder

Barbados
I enjoy the adventure that takes place within my mind to seek what is different, to be different, to challenge perception and that is reflected in my work. My inspiration comes from my love for nature and floral elements from Arabic and Islamic Art.

I established my company Junoon Designs within the same year that I graduated from College in 2010. Many people believed in me and encouraged me to do what I love and so I did. I have been exploring my love for art specifically typography, design, henna art and photography.

I have worked with clients such as Muslim Aid UK, Victoria's Secret, University of the West Indies Islamic Society, Youth for Epic Change, The Nation and a few more.
