Africa Daley-Clarke has one of those homes which you'd like to step through your screen and curl up in. It's at once modern and traditional, pared back yet full of interesting details. You find yourself gazing at the warm walls, drawn to the floors, doors and architraves. This is not by chance: every detail, down to the treatment of the bones has been extremely carefully designed, as was her flat before this, and so to will be any home which follows.
Africa doesn't do anything unconsidered. Each purchase, change or decision is made thoughtfully. She champions slow-living, sustainable interiors and social justice. She is an art director, brand consultant and writer, and happily for us, a great supporter of Kalinko.
" I first discovered Kalinko about five years ago, and I’ve loved how their designs bring warmth, beauty, and craftsmanship into my home. The brand’s blend of natural textures, timeless aesthetics, and ethical production aligns with my own values. Over the years, these pieces have travelled with us through various homes, each one a testament to thoughtful craftsmanship and care. Just a few scattered accents are enough to create a space that feels eclectic, well-travelled, and full of character."
Africa's platform The Vitamin D Project, and her instagram page are full of brilliant tips on where to shop for sustainable clothes, furniture and accessories and toys, on how to blend the old with the new, and on small updates which make a big difference to your happiness but a little impact on the planet.
She has also kindly curated her selection of Top Kalinko Picks. Click below to shop.
