L'Afrique, c'est chic We’ve searched far and wide, through Africa’s deserts and jungles, cities and wildlife reserves, islands and mountains, to uncover the continent’s most inspirational dwellings; our goal was to find the kind of interiors that defy description, and we think the results will definitely leave you speechless. Nestled within these pages you’ll find lush modern homes mingling with mud huts, funky artists’ studios, elegant lodges, minimalist houses, ornate traditional homes, townships and much more—all lovingly built and decorated with sensitivity, creativity, craftsmanship, individuality, and sensuality. Inside Africa captures the beauty and diversity of African living. Beautifully bound with an African tribal motif cloth cover Highlights include: • an ultra-modern home in the sprawling hills overlooking Johannesburg • Ornately painted Kassena huts on the border between Burkina Faso and Ghana • an opulent Emir’s palace in Nigeria with eye-popping colorful details on the cathedral-like ceilings • nomads' Moorish tents in the Sahara • a majestic mansion on a vineyard in South Africa Countries featured: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, and Togo About the editor: Angelika Taschen studied art history and German literature in Heidelberg, gaining her doctorate in 1986.
