The Studio & The Portfolio

Exotic Matter • Niche Creators is the creative studio and portfolio of Dr. Fania Bajot—an entrepreneur, scientist, and artist based in the UK.

Trained in computational toxicology with a PhD from the University of Geneva, Fania began her career in research before turning to creation as a form of personal and intellectual expression. What started with the founding of Ô SABLÉ—a brand shaped by her Guadeloupean heritage, specifically Marie-Galante, and a scientific mindset—expanded into multiple original ventures. Each operates with a distinct concept but shares a unified approach: clarity of vision, integrity of process, and independence from trend cycles.

EMNC functions as the structural home for this evolving body of work. It encompasses Fania's original brands—Ô SABLÉ, Fania B, Barbe de Rue, and Pamela Rose Garden—as well as her abstract paintings, textile studies, and editorial projects. All are conceived, developed, and produced by Fania herself.

At the centre of EMNC is EMNC: The Portfolio, a printed volume including a discovery set that serves as the definitive archive of this creative universe. Designed, written, and curated by Fania, it brings together fashion, fragrance, art, and philosophy in a single, deliberate format. It prioritises depth over distraction and permanence over digital ephemera. The Portfolio operates as a tangible record of intention, craft, and continuity.

This website functions as an introduction to that universe. It provides a space to understand the ideas, values, and discipline behind the work. Each brand operates independently with its own identity, but all share the same foundational principles: that creation requires both intellectual rigour and material honesty.
