In design terms, Afrocentrism means looking to African heritage and creatives for ideas and inspiration. It means using traditional colors, patterns, and artifacts either as they are or with a contemporary twist. In this project we used rough and smooth wood finishes to represent the African struggle and times of peace. We also used rich bold colors like metallic gold and patterns that originate with African tribes, all to remind us of natural and cultural elements found in the African culture.
