As befits the penchant of a maverick, Jonathan Baker, the founder of furniture brand Rusty Fundi, operates from a distinctly unremarkable tin workshop at Karen Village, Nairobi.
Its exterior may be unremarkable, but its interior is the hub of innovative and eccentric furniture designs and other fittings for the venturesome homeowner. Other than homes, Rusty Fundi fabricates bespoke furniture for restaurants.
