aba sasaako

kristina and i were talking about european design trends and she mentioned that pieces with an african influence seem to be popping up more and more lately. the bold patterns and richly colored textile traditions of africa seem to be creeping into furniture, tableware and textiles these days and i thought these gorgeous pillows from designer aba sasaako were a great example. british born ghanaian, aba sasaako set out to create a range of modern accessories that combine contemporary fashion with african culture. the result is a beautiful collection of cushions, runners, clothing and more that exude the vibrancy and warmth of african design. click here to see aba's full collection [i think that yellow and blue pillow is especially lovely]
