African-inspired living space at sunset, styled by Etni'KS
Consultancy

African decoration, designed around you.

A personalised decoration consultancy for homes, hotels, ateliers and considered spaces. We compose interiors that carry the soul of African craftsmanship into contemporary living.

The Approach

Interiors that feel rooted, warm and quietly contemporary.

Whether you are styling a single room or shaping an entire space, we help you bring together handwoven textiles, artisanal lighting, carved wood and natural fibres into spaces that feel both personal and timeless.

Every project begins with listening — to your light, your habits and the story you want your space to tell — and ends with pieces made by hand, in fair partnership with the artisans we work with.

What We Offer

Four ways we can work together.

01

Discovery & Vision

We start with a conversation — your space, your story, the rhythm of life or work that unfolds there. From there we shape a creative direction rooted in the African Natural Lifestyle and tailored to your environment.

02

Mood Boards & Material Palettes

Curated palettes of natural fibres, hand-dyed textiles, carved woods and earthen tones. Every reference is sourced from the artisan communities we work with.

03

Bespoke Commissions

Custom basketry, woven lighting, sculptural furniture and one-of-a-kind textiles — co-designed with our makers and crafted to the dimensions of your space.

04

Styling & Installation

On-site or remote styling: layered cushions, considered lighting, hung art and the small rituals that turn any space into a sanctuary.

The Process

From first conversation to final reveal.

  1. Step 01

    Brief

    A complimentary call to understand the spaces, the people who use them and the feeling you want to inhabit.

  2. Step 02

    Proposal

    A tailored concept with mood boards, material samples, a furniture plan and a transparent quote.

  3. Step 03

    Craft

    We coordinate the makers — weavers, dyers, carvers — and keep you in the loop as your pieces come to life.

  4. Step 04

    Reveal

    Delivery, installation and styling. We leave a space that breathes — and a relationship that stays open.

Bespoke Pieces

Commission a single, one-of-a-kind piece.

Not looking for a full consultancy? We also take on standalone commissions — a single object made by hand, to your dimensions, palette and story. No styling, no room plan: just the piece itself, co-designed with our artisans and shipped to you.

01

Basketry & Woven Objects

Custom Bolga baskets, pet homes, laundry baskets, planters and sculptural forms — sized, coloured and patterned to your brief.

02

Lighting & Pendants

Handwoven pendants, floor lamps and lanterns in natural fibres, dyed straw or raffia — scaled for residential or hospitality settings.

03

Textiles & Cushions

Bespoke batik, indigo, tie-dye and asooke textiles: cushions, throws, curtains and upholstery yardage in your palette.

04

Furniture & Sculptural Pieces

Carved stools, benches, low tables and one-of-a-kind sculptural pieces co-designed with our carvers and weavers.
