German born Husam El Odeh studied fine art at the renowned Hochschule der Kuenste in Berlin and worked successfully as an artist in Berlin until he relocated to London in 1999.

Having just graduated from Middlesex University in summer 2005, he was offered sponsorship from the British Fashion Council for a stand at NEWGEN during London Fashion Week in September. He received this a further three times. He has been awarded the international award for cutting edge accessories design, the “so fresh award” given out by Pierre Lang and unit f in Austria this year.
