exotic tribal the amazing home of Diane von Furstenberg
exotic tribal the amazing home of Diane von Furstenberg
The last post was about tribal elements and tribal inspired pieces primarily form Native Americans and the southwest, but today I am sharing a more exotic type of tribal influence. One the brings to mind images of far-off vistas and once-in-a-lifetime-dream-destinations like Africa....
I think the only mistake you can make with these is to try an "theme" your space - we arent trying to reimagine a safari, just bringing in a few select pieces and accessories that make your heart skip a beat. Im doing this in my own home - I just ordered this vintage mud cloth from an ebay seller.
Cant wait to see this beauty up close!! It will be mounted to a wooden frame and hung over my family room fireplace - there are eighteen foot ceilings in this room, and after debating a gallery wall I decided to go with one large scale piece. Ill happily take pics to share in the next weeks as this room is finally coming together :)
Here are some bits and pieces I think we will be seeing pop up more and more in the coming months...
luscious walls, and ideas for even more luscious walls :)
the horn - thinking this could be the next antler...
and I really couldnt do this post without including the AH-MAZING apt of DVF - have you seen this?!!
My absolute favourite right now. I love it all. Exactly the right mix of clean lines, pattern, glam and authenticity.
Ready to move in? Me too. Hope you have a lovely weekend planned, we are having round two of the family celebrations for Miss Ns birthday. I am officially Mum to a teen. Scary :) x am
