REC

I rethink spaces, help bring ideas to life, and film the process.

Every corner
has potential.

I really believe that

I’m Akilah, a content creator, designer and hands-on maker based in Barbados.

Have a business you’d like to transform, or a product you’d love to see used in a real project? I’d love to hear what you have in mind.

What can we
make happen?

01 /

Commercial

My approach is content first, construction second.

I want people to meet the humans behind the business, understand what you’re trying to do, and follow the transformation.

Residential

Tell me how you want to use your space, what’s bothering you, and what needs to stay. I’ll probably start having ideas while you’re still explaining.

Design, project management and hands-on work. Filming is optional.

Brand collaborations

I like working with products I’d actually use. Fabric I’m already imagining on a bench. A tool that would help with my next build.

I use them, film the process, and show what I make with them.

THE PERSON BEHIND THE PROJECTS

Hi, I am Akilah.

But you can call me Aki.

I grew up in a small city near Montreal, rearranging furniture, building things with my sister, and making films with my friends.

Barbados is where my three biggest loves since childhood finally came together: video, design and construction.

The process

From an idea
to something real.

01

Tell me about it.

What do you want the space to do? What needs to stay?

Send me a message through my website or Instagram. Tell me about your project, your timeline and your budget. We’ll see if we’re a good fit to work together.

02

Explore the ideas.

We find a direction and decide what makes sense for your project.

I’ll share an estimate with a first glimpse of the direction: a few images and ideas to help you picture the possibilities. If you decide to move forward, we’ll build on that starting point.

03

Bring it to life.

I get hands-on and bring in people I choose for the parts that need other skills.

Once the project is approved, we’ll work through the details and find the right people to make it happen. I get hands-on where I can and bring in specialists for the parts that need their expertise.

04

Share the story.

For projects we film, people get to follow the transformation and meet the humans behind it.

People connect with people. For projects we film, I share the transformation through the people behind it: their ideas, their work and their story. It’s a way to help others connect with your business, beyond the finished space.

Stay for the next chapter.I have a lottttttt of
ideas, so be ready

Watch the full transformations on YouTube, then follow the everyday making on Instagram and TikTok.
