"In 2014 African influences are expected to be a major trend," says "Freshhome", architecture and design web log. Among their top 10 most talked about interior design trends is the mood board theme based on Pantone's home + interiors 2014 color trend called "tribal threads".
African design stands for their particularly dynamic and exotic features. If you tried to categorize the look, it's a mumbo jumbo of traditional, transitional and contemporary rolled into one kaleidoscope of color. Safari Chic.
Ethnic, eclectic and exotic, the style weaves African design- inspired area rugs, brilliant colored textiles, sculpture, wallpaper, and ritual art into the home. But, the most compelling characteristics are the bold hues and competing patterns that define the vast conglomeration of the many countries and cultures clustered under the umbrella of African design.

We are all members of tribes whether through cultural background, religion, political affiliation or community. The colors in this palette are as varied as the tribal diversity they represent, yet they construct a universal linkage of artistic appreciation rooted in personal expression. Color combinations may be as disarmingly simple or as complex as inter-woven threads.
