"Il ya une image, une idée de l'Afrique qui vit au plus profond de l'imagination humaine. Sa forme transcende souvent la puissance du monde et son profil se trouve sous des couches de récupération consciente. il est vivant en chacun de nous à un niveau primordiale, inexplicable mais indéniable. "Maya Angelou


L'été arrive! Inspiré par de belles couleurs, modèles aussi bien que la prochaine Coupe du Monde, nous tenons à dédier ce post à des influences, des tendances et des projets qui se passe dans et autour de l'Afrique.

Moroso made a big impact with their ‘M’Afrique’ collection last year. Patrizia Moroso talks about the motivation for the project: “multifaceted, modern Africa deserves to be known and sustained for the originality of the creative languages with which it enriches global culture. The African continent is extraordinarily rich in creativity, materials and ideas that are sources of inspiration and nourishment for us.” M’Afrique consists of various pieces of furniture, designed, amongst others, by African artists, for example Fathi Hassan or Soly Cisse as well as European designers such as Patricia Urquiola, Tord Boontje, and Stephen Burks, who also designed the exhibition around the entire collection in Milan.
