The story

Who is the founder?

Malehu Anna Langa, best known as Mali Langa, is the visionary Founder and Executive Creative Director of House of TASK, a black woman‑owned interior design and styling boutique celebrated for its elegance, innovation, and cultural depth. Born and raised in the beautiful province of Limpopo, Mali’s creative journey began in her early childhood. She drew her first inspiration for interior styling from her aunt, who raised her. Together, they would spring‑clean, rearrange furniture, and experiment with new layouts—unknowingly planting the seeds for what would become a world‑class design career. These early memories shaped Mali’s instinctive understanding of space, aesthetics, harmony, and transformation.

Today, Mali is a multifaceted entrepreneur who wears many hats—but House of TASK is the passion project closest to her heart. Under her leadership, the firm has earned national and international recognition for its exceptional work, luxurious design language, and distinctive storytelling through space.
A Visionary Expanding the Design Landscape

In 2021, Mali made a bold and strategic investment by acquiring Eminent Designs, a shopfitting and joinery company with more than 20 years of cabinetry experience. Under her guidance, the firm has expanded significantly, growing from a modest operation into one of the leading manufacturing and shopfitting facilities in Africa. Today, it boasts state‑of‑the‑art machinery, advanced production systems, and a highly skilled team of professionals dedicated to excellence. Through her leadership, Mali has built meaningful relationships with industry partners, suppliers, artisans, and clients across the continent. Her work is guided by intentionality, cultural identity, meticulous detail, and an unwavering commitment to creating spaces that feel luxurious, personal, and deeply considered. A Power Force With a Vision for the Future Mali Langa is a dynamic and influential force in the African design industry—driven, inspired, and continuously evolving. Her long‑term vision is to create a fully integrated, one‑stop design and manufacturing house, keeping all services in‑house to ensure:

– Better creative control
– Seamless project management
– Superior quality assurance
– A consistent luxury experience for every client

With House of TASK, Mali is not only shaping interiors—she is shaping a legacy. A legacy grounded in heritage, elevated by craftsmanship, rooted in African excellence, and designed for global impact.
