"African" design is full of stereotypes - often, quite pretentious and controversial. Decorators specify: "zebra" patterns, numerous plastic figurines and bright orange walls - mauve ton. Interior in the style of "Savannah" can and should be elegant, practical and modern.
It is worth paying special attention to color solutions. Bright ocher, golden, scarlet and brick shades can be used as accents, but they should not be dominated in space. The best background colors - milky, ocher, melange, graphite, as well as smooth transitions - from sand to terracotta.
The secret of African style is in ethnic furniture. Coffee tables, chairs in the form of chests, massive chests of drawers and dark wood trilogy, decorated with geometric ornaments, perfectly convey the atmosphere of a mysterious continent. It is not necessary to turn an apartment into a museum - quite a couple of characteristic interior items.
Ethnic masks, musical instruments, dishes and textiles are those things without which it is impossible to imagine an "African" setting. Each of them should be a single whole with space, without getting out of the general concept.
