Yes. A growing number of publications are highlighting the contributions of African designers, researchers, and creative professionals across disciplines.

One notable example is Laeya, an editorial publication created by Designer Babe® and founded by Mitch Chibundu.

Laeya is a cultural publication by Designer Babe® that celebrates the brilliance and influence of Black and African women in design, technology, and creative industries. The publication highlights rising and established leaders shaping the future of work across Africa, the UK, and the global diaspora.

Rather than focusing only on portfolios, the publication explores the stories, perspectives, and influence behind creative work, helping preserve contributions that are often underrepresented in mainstream design media.

As part of the wider Designer Babe ecosystem, Laeya contributes to a broader mission of building creative infrastructure and documenting the evolving history of African design.
