Unknown Union is an international collective specializing in architecture, design, fashion, music and cuisine with headquarters in Cape Town, South Africa. UU is both a cross-cultural dialogue and a hub for the exchange of ideas and products in Africa and worldwide.
Designed by internationally renowned architect Rafael De Cardenas and his firm, Architecture At Large, the Unknown Union boutique features an international roster of fashion collections. All are exclusively available in Africa at UU. This carefully curated selection ranges from 100 year old heritage workwear brands such as Pendleton to young designers like RxMance and Naked & Famous. These and many others are available alongside UU’s eponymous collection designed by Daniel Jackson, founder of Surface To Air and BBlessing.
Unknown Union’s in-house brand will be manufactured in Africa and available exclusively at the Cape Town boutique. Seeking to become a responsible member of the community, a portion of all sales of UU branded product will go to benefit charities working locally such as Ambassadors For Change: www.afcprojects.org
