Temilade Adebisi‘s foray into the creative space is not far fetched. Right from her childhood, she had always loved beautiful ambience. Transforming spaces into desired haven comes naturally.
Little wonder, she founded Space Specifics an Interior Design brand and another, Furniture Co.
Shedding light on how the journey began for her, Temilade explains.
“Interestingly, I studied accounting in School, but knew quite well that I was not going to walk that path. So, I ventured into entrepreneurship just immediately I was done in the University.”
The space design expert explained that her attempt at business all started with making and selling beads on campus. She also got involved in network marketing to make ends meet.
“After my University, I knew I wanted to do something related to decorating homes. So, I went to a popular curtain and bedsheet maker back then in Ibadan and started my apprenticeship journey with him. That experience made me learn the rudiment of making curtains, bedsheets, throw pillows, sourcing materials, sowing and others.”
Temilade, who believes so much in being grounded and starting any venture well, added that her quest to further hone her skills, become better positioned in the industry, led her to enroll in a prestigious interior design school in Lagos as well as do another online course with a UK based design School.
Over the years, Temilade has become a better version of herself with a new baby added to her list of subsidiary brands named Furniture and Co.
Speaking on her brand offering. She says this.
“At Space Specifics, we offer interior design services, space planning, projects and renovation, window treatments, bespoke furniture.
Our new addition, Furniture and Co, is always a place to be for those who wish to buy ready made office furniture. We believe so much in quality and as such attract premium clients” She added.
On why she opened Furniture Co. She has this to say.
“Furniture and Co was established as a wholesaling and retailing store for office furniture and soft home furniture,this was due to the huge demand from client and customers, and we also want customers who don’t need full interior design services to be able to pick up items they want with ease.”
Adebisi further added that COVID changed a lot of things in the society which also includes the way we work. She says:
“Most people now work from the comfort of their Homes and attend meetings all over the world from their homes. As a customer centered business,we want our customers to shop for their imported office furniture in different variety and soft furniture like our best selling ranges of eames and Nordic chairs and tables with ease, from the comfort of their office and homes.”

On what makes her brand highly sought, the entrepreneur says her brand over the years has positioned itself in the mind of client as a brand that creates beautiful and elegant spaces with timely delivery.
