Nasozi Kakembo, author of The African Decor Edit, highlights how mainstream design often overlooks the cultural depth of African décor. She describes it as more than a style—it's a celebration of identity, tradition, and craftsmanship. In her book, Kakembo shares the artistry of African design, honors artisan contributions, and advocates for transparency and respect in sourcing heritage items.
