Decorators and homemakers need go no further than the Namibia Craft Centre for inspiration on how to decorate their homes. ‘Namibian Interiors’ is an exhibition that opened on Tuesday 15 April at 19h00 featuring three different interiors using exclusively Namibian home accessories, put together by Ikhoba, Pambili and Mud Hut Trading.

Chackirra Claassens, a designer with Pambili, puts the finishing touches onto the 'Namibian Interiors' Exhibition.

The exhibition is at the Bank Windhoek Omba Gallery and features Namibian designed and made décor items.
Ikhoba, well known for its colourful embroidered textiles produced by women in and around Otjiwarongo, will decorate the interior using a children’s room as a theme. Specially commissioned patchwork quilts and colourful embroideries will add a touch of fun to its space in the Bank Windhoek Omba Gallery.
Pambili is using karakul hand-felted carpets, wall hangings and a new felted furniture range made in Dordabis to accessorize a living-room interior in natural Namibian tones.
Mud Hut Trading is launching new textiles with motifs from San artists living in Ohangwena to decorate a dining interior. These textiles received much acclaim at the recent Design Indaba held in Cape Town in February earlier this year.
The exhibition closes on the 5 May 2008.
