Amani at Home features vibrant pillows made from African wax batik fabrics.
After an expedition to Ghana, West Africa, owner and interior designer, Amani Bush was inspired by the people and culture and wanted to make a connection to the beauty of the African country through her design projects.
With the fabrics acquired from her journey, Bush launched a venture creating accent pieces that balance tradition and modern styles.
Bush says, “It was a very organic decision for me. I looked around and saw so many other influences in school, magazines and blogs, but did not see the type of design I felt connected to. This absence fueled me and I became determined to use my talent as a designer to help others incorporate ethnic design into their spaces.”
Pillows by Amani at Home are an excellent opportunity to add luxurious African textiles to your living space in a modern way.
