OUR TESTIMONIALS

Shoe Design Course 

cape town

If you have lost all confidence in your abilities, Style Architects will restore it…their expertise, guidance and patience are insurmountable. I had such an incredible experience by not only doing the online course but by actually making my own shoes at the workshop. I look forward to growing my skills and working with you in the future

Athena & her team passed all expectations as we embarked on our shoe making journey with them. They came to our workshop, trained our staff and are still offering support and guidance where we need it.
I highly recommend style architects.
I have had the most incredible experience working with them.

Shoe Design Online Course

Africa

I learned a lot in the past 6 months, and our lecturer made it feel like we were in class, although it was an online course. Athena was very patient, and she made me feel so relaxed and free to ask anything. The shoe design course is so worth it, and I am glad I chose style architects.
