Zimbabwean furniture design company Pachipamwe Africa gives home-grown materials a modern twist

Zimbabweans are very protective of their indigenous timber, and rightly so: the country has been exporting its top-quality wood since the early 20th century. One such premium timber is teak, a prized feature in many a Zimbabwean home. Furniture designers Pachipamwe Africa have embraced this trend but taken it up a notch with these teak tables with brightly coloured steel frames. We love it when retro gets an update.
