Topolansky Fine Furniture

Rocking the Out of Africa look is no easy task – too much and you run the risk of your room looking like a curio shop, too little and the idea falls flat.

The key to pulling off a winning Safari-style interior that is both on-trend and true to the Continent lies in pairing finely crafted classic and contemporary pieces in natural materials with unique handmade accessories. This includes the use of bold animal- and tribal-inspired prints for a warm, vibrant space, along with materials such as wood and leather. For instance, think about pairing a beautiful sofa from Topolansky Fine Furniture’s Vintage Leather Collection with an antique leather trunk coffee table for a classic take on the style or opt for a more contemporary interpretation with the leather Cape Arm Chair, wooden Accent Table B with its complex tribal carvings, and a jute rug.

Another key element of the look is colour. Neutral hues such as browns, creams and dirty green shades work best. Accent this with earthy red hues and gold accents for richness and depth.

To this, you can add vibrant accent pieces such as zebra-striped scatter cushions, a bold peacock-hued vase, woven baskets and African-inspired artwork. Adding pieces with a reflective quality, such as the Bulles Mirror, is also a great way to modernise the safari style.

“It is about balancing a respect for the old with a healthy streak of innovation and contemporary styles with an added touch of timelessness,” explains Topolansky Fine Furniture about their unique approach to the safari style. “Our unique approach plays with tradition, looks at the classics through modern eyes and produces something fresh, exciting and current.”
