Wild Life: A Unique Blend of Modernism and Ethnic Adventures

Interior Design by Shosha Kamal

Inspired by the African wild life

When wild life meets modernism and falls perfectly in harmony, that’s what we call "a visual masterpiece." In the design of Wild Life, Shosha Kamal combines modern simplicity with ethnic adventures to create a truly unique space.

Located in Cairo, Egypt, the project started in December 2011 and was completed in February 2013. The design team aimed to create a living space that not only visually appeals but also provides psychological benefits. By utilizing the basic psychological properties of color, patterns, scents, fabric, and textures, they enhanced the value of the space.

The main challenge faced during the design process was blending the roughness of the ethnic style with the cleanliness of the modern style without compromising on harmony and balance. However, through creative solutions and meticulous attention to detail, the team achieved a seamless integration of the two.

Wild Life features a neutral color palette of white, beige, and grey for the walls and furniture, with color accents introduced through wall art and lighting fixtures. Upon entrance, visitors are greeted by a statement-making cow skin flying sofa and hanging glass balls filled with artificial plants, creating a vibrant and fresh look.

This design, captured through the lens of Remon Elmarquiz, has been recognized for its outstanding creativity and ingenuity. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Interior Space, Retail, and Exhibition Design category in 2014. This prestigious accolade is bestowed upon designs that exhibit strong technical and creative skills, contributing to quality of life improvements and making the world a better place.

Experience the surprises that come when wild life meets modernism in the captivating design of Wild Life by Shosha Kamal.
