Description
Travel with Ugandan American designer Nasozi Kakembo as she explores iconic home goods—from mudcloth to Moroccan rugs—at the source and offers thoughtful guidance on collecting and decorating with traditional African treasures.
In The African Decor Edit, author Nasozi Kakembo shares her deep knowledge of ethically sourced and aesthetically elevated heritage wares. Through her interior design practice xN Studio, Nasozi collaborates with artisans throughout Africa, and hers is the rare design book that delves into the origin and meaning behind the furnishings and accessories shown.
Each chapter presents artisans in their home countries, telling their stories in their own words. The book also demonstrates the beauty of African decor outside of Africa, with a collection of inspiring, layered interiors from all over the world.
The African Decor Edit is a must-have for all who admire African wares and wish to decorate with them in a thoughtful and ethical way.
