Nestled in the vibrant neighborhood of Dunkeld, Johannesburg, Magugu House stands as a new cultural landmark. This innovative space, created by the visionary designer Thebe Magugu, offers an immersive journey through African fashion and history.
“I’ve always dreamed of uniting all my collections, installations, events, and projects in one cohesive space,” says Thebe Magugu. “Magugu House is the realization of that dream – an institution that embodies our universe.”

Thebe Magugu’s fashion journey is nothing short of remarkable. His brand is celebrated for its deep narratives and afro-encyclopaedic approach, drawing inspiration from Africa’s rich histories and heritage. Each collection goes beyond mere clothing, offering a thoughtful exploration of themes often named after university subjects, providing a deeper understanding of the continent’s past and present.
Magugu House is envisioned as the first campus of this educational journey. Here, fashion meets academia, and every piece tells a story. Visitors can expect a dynamic space filled with exquisite garments, alongside installations and events that celebrate Africa’s diverse cultural narratives.
