DESIGNER NOTES:
Before purchasing, confirm all furniture dimensions, clearances, and access points to ensure eachpiece works comfortably within your space.
WALL TREATMENT:
Afro Chic is designed to feel rich, layered, and globally inspired. Choose one of therecommended paint colors in amatte or flat finishto create a sophisticated backdrop for theroom’s art, pattern, and sculptural furnishings.For greater visual impact, use one of the recommended wallcoverings as astatement wallbehind the primary seating area. For a more unexpected designer approach, keep the wallspainted and carry the wallcovering onto theceiling, transforming it into a dramatic architecturalfeature.
FURNITURE PLACEMENT:
Create a conversational arrangement that feels collected rather than overly symmetrical. Allowsculptural furniture and statement pieces enough breathing room to be appreciated individuallywhile maintaining comfortable pathways throughout the room.
RUG SCALE:
Choose a generously sized rug to ground the primary furniture arrangement. Ideally, the frontlegs of the main seating pieces should rest on the rug. Pattern and texture are welcome here—therug should feel like another layer of the design rather than simply a neutral foundation.
LIGHTING:
Treat lighting as sculpture. Center the primary fixture over the main furniture arrangement anduse additional lighting to create warmth, shadow, and dimension throughout the space. The goalis a layered glow rather than one single source of light.
ART + ACCESSORIES:
Art is an essential part of the Afro Chic aesthetic. Mix bold artwork, sculptural objects,handcrafted pieces, ceramics, books, and globally inspired accents. Vary scale and material, andavoid over-styling—each piece should feel meaningful and intentionally collected.
DESIGNER TIP:
Thinkglobal sophistication, not themed décor. The key to Afro Chic is combining culturalinfluence with contemporary design throughart, pattern, texture, natural materials, andsculptural form. Mix old with new, organic with polished, and bold pieces with quietermoments to create a room that feels collected over time.
