African interior style
Speaking of exotic styles in a modern interior, then certainly the direction of African ethno-style take first place.
For ease of reading we will call it simply, the African interior style.
Energetic people will always prefer, a hot, impulsive rhythm of Afro-moderate style and thorough, patriarchal styles.
African style imbued original art of this mysterious black tribes of the continent.
Even an unsophisticated audience immediately identify everyday objects and utensils plain inherent in this continent: wooden dishes for fruit, exotic sculptures, ceremonial masks, stylized lanterns, paintings in the style of naive art.
Many designers are asking themselves whether in the interior play dopodlenno, African hut, or enough to make a few design touches that will highlight the African line.
This question is difficult to answer, not understanding that for the purpose set before executing.
I would recommend to solve the interior of the apartment with a moderate accent decor, African objects are combined, even with the most modern interior. For example, to transform a strict minimalist sofa, enough to throw him a bright plaid with a funny drawing or intricate geometrical patterns. Nearby you can throw soft colorful cushions, set bowls and figurines of unusual shapes.
A public establishments (cafes, restaurants, bars, etc.) may decorate to create the illusion of presence on the African continent. Here for a designer with tremendous creative possibilities, and now everything depends on his imagination and professionalism.
Any room will look much as effectively if it is to decorate linen napkins and curtains with embroidered figures of giraffes and tigers, wooden vases, decorated with bamboo sticks, trays and souvenirs from the African stones. In order to create in my house atmosphere of the African safari, useful lamps, dishes, pillows, blankets and even furniture with a pattern which simulate the fur of wild animals such as zebras.
Masks on the walls of the premises will give a special flavor. Correctly placing them on the plane, we obtain an impulsive rhythm typical to this region.
If we consider the color scheme, I would recommend to use, yellow, red, orange and other warm tones symbolize the hot climate of the continent. Do not forget however, that heat always intersects with the desired cool, so the oasis in the interior (possibly a small waterfall or fountain) will always be pleasing to the eye.
To "maintain" good afrostilya Spanish-Moorish chests of the Lebanese cedar or ebony, upholstered camel or buffalo skin, inlaid with henna tinted bone, with inlays of brass and copper. They successfully dilute dull minimalism, bring the original motif. Tom also serve Moroccan and floor lamps, upholstered with leather, painted with natural dyes, such as pomegranate extract or solution of mimosa.
It is interesting items from Morocco, which mingled different traditions: Berber ceramics - laconic, decorated with geometric patterns, the Spanish-Moorish furniture, ancient Jewish coinage with symbolic images.
Interior Decoration in the African style excites the imagination, creates a feeling of touching the mystery, to something special. Maximum exotic and grotesque, he suddenly breaks the stereotyped idea of what should be the interior.
