TRIBE: Nothing beats natural

Sourced from around the world, Dubai’s favourite eco-conscious interior styling store TRIBE is where I head when it comes to finding furniture for my new home.

This earthy hotspot is a treasure trove of handmade, sustainable and natural products that are crafted around the world and curated by Dubai based Jo England. Their network of over 1000 artists extends to over 25+ countries, believing throughout that each piece should be sustainably created and ethically sourced. Fair-trade is also a key measuring point for the TRIBE team and their artisans are assured fair wages.

In this day and age where conscious consumerism is in the spotlight finally, organic and natural materials are having a resurgence and outdoor-indoor furniture no longer needs an introduction. Having a place to breathe in the home is important too, so each piece is designed to bring a taste of the tropics to you, helping to create a really comfortable and creative space for you to enjoy. Their studio space allows for a little more freedom of expression too, with a dedicated customization technician to add a little more personality into your home.

I have some gorgeous pieces from TRIBE, like my bedroom headboard in rattan, but with my new space needing some more warmth downstairs too, I chose this gorgeous island hanging chair. Inspired by the beach and designed for swinging the afternoon away. Not only is bamboo a beautiful looking material, it’s also fast-growing, strong and easy to harvest… making it a super sustainable material source.

Focusing on social responsibility too which is of uber importance to me, TRIBE plant’s trees and supports reforestation. As well as sponsoring a unique organization in India, which educates children (as seen on Netflix in ‘Daughters of Destiny’).

🌵 Interior Inspo for our New Flat 🌵

We’re moving house in the next month and amidst trying to stop my self searching this early on for an available flat, (as it’ll be gone by the time I come to putting down a cheque) I’ve been on a bit of an interior design tangent to my normal Pinterest pics of sunsets, surf and stylings. H&M Home’s latest campaign (featured image) is making me want to paint my walls, remove all the curtains in favour of shutters and lay down flooring… but until that time where I own my own little slice of real estate and can have fun with its interiors, here’s what’s on my moodboard at the moment…

It’s copper features, accents of fur and wood and of course, minimalistic pastel colour, of which grey has been a particular fave recently…

Here’s snippets of my room now…

And here’s what I’m imagining my new flat to look like once I’m through with it…

Kitchen
Love the white clean finishes and the hint of metallic on the lights Kitchen

Living Room
We have a big white leather L shape that would look much better on wooden floors but for now, we’ll stock up on rugs and plants! Living Room Living Room Living Room

Bedroom
Again full of whites, but i’ve learned I need to use the ceiling and walls more – not just the floor space… Bedroom Bedroom Bedroom

Those pieces that you just NEED and will figure out where to put them later! Accents Accents Accents
