Meet Matt
Owner of Kleur Space
Matthew isn’t just the founder of Kleur Space. He’s the energy behind it. A bold thinker with a deep love for colour and design, he’s been pushing boundaries long before paint tins and colour charts entered the picture.
As a kid, “I can’t” simply wasn’t part of Matt’s vocabulary. Whether it was dropping into 10-foot skateboard ramps at eight years old or becoming a South African champion and world competitor in BMX, he’s always chased that feeling of what’s possible. That fearless spirit still drives him today.
Kleur Space was born from that same mindset. A paint brand that’s proudly local, built on simplicity, quality, and heart. Under Matt’s leadership, Kleur isn’t just about colour. It’s about creating an experience that feels effortless, personal, and joyful.
Behind the brand is a story shaped by family and faith. As the youngest of four boys, Matt was inspired by his dad’s resilience and entrepreneurial spirit. Hearing stories of how his father faced hardship with grit and never gave up laid the foundation for Matt’s grounded, no-nonsense approach to life and business. His dad’s love for the ocean lives on in Matt, who still returns to the water to recharge and find calm.
Matt is also a devoted husband to his high school sweetheart and proud dad to two energetic boys who share his love for the outdoors and the simple things in life. If you ask Matt what he values most, the answer is easy — time. Time with family, time in nature, time doing what matters.
If he had to describe life in one sentence, it would be this: happiness is achieved through simplicity.
And if you had to describe Matt in one word: loyal.
With Kleur, you get more than just high-quality paint. You get a brand built on real people, real purpose, and a whole lot of heart.

Desire & Mark
Owners / CEO’s
For Desire and Mark, Kleur Space is more than a

captures her free-spirited nature and affinity for the African bush. Mark is drawn to deeper, bolder hues—African Perfection speaks to the continent’s earthy beauty, and shades like Forever Young reflect his love of striking contrasts and the vibrant rhythm
of Africa.

through the sky with the freedom of flight, while Mark would embrace the sharp intuition of a mentalist, always one step ahead.

Giving Back with Kleur
Supporting local communities and meaningful projects with purpose and a touch of colour.
Akhanani
Bringing colour, joy, and care to the communities we love.
At Kleur Space, we believe colour has the power to brighten more than just walls. It lifts hearts, sparks hope, and creates spaces where people thrive. That’s why we’re proud to support Akhanani, a children’s community centre in Booysens Park, Gqeberha.
Akhanani is now a vibrant little hub where children find safety, support, and smiles. Every day, they provide after-school care, help with homework, adult education, and hot meals for up to 100 kids who need it most.
We’re honoured to help brighten their classrooms by donating paint and finishes to transform their learning spaces into vibrant spaces where fun, creativity and confidence can grow.
This is just one small way we use what we love, colour and community, to make a real difference in people’s lives.
