THE COLOURS OF AFRICA
Everyone has a sense of colour that is their own and for Bernie de Le Cuona it is a palette rooted in nature and the landscape of her beloved Africa.
The warm burnt umbers and sand tones of the African earth, the deep verdant greens of its forest, and the soft pinks of a sunrise over the Zambezi, or the deep blues of its waters make de Le Cuona’s palette truly unique.
A WORLD OF TACTILITY
The connection we have to nature through our bodies, our senses, and those materials with which we surround ourselves come from nature as the thread that runs through everything we are. Our diverse palette of textures ignite our sense of touch. From the raw, dry exaggerated textures of upholstery cloths to the smooth, sleek weaves of satins, and the supple fluidity of super fine sheers de Le Cuona embodies a world of tactility.
