Think. Design. Africa

This week I share on the impotence of Building a lasting legacy! 

Let explore the untapped design industry. Our Africa is fertile ground! This is a challenge for us all. Let us Think Design AFRICA :-!

Surveys are one of the most reliable methods to get real feedback from our clients or consumers. We are really in business to satisfy the needs of our clients but Africa has no real data on the state of the industry presenting a real big problem. How do we solve this? 

It's IFI World Interiors Day this week and specifically on May 23rd, its being celebrated around the globe. The theme this year is NEXUS Interiors. How will YOU be celebrating?  

In this episode, Titi Ogufere takes us through the dynamics of specialization within the Design Industry, specifically for the built environment.

Sourcing in Africa. What changes will you make?

The world as we know it has gone through what I’ll like to call a ‘global war’ - A crisis that has affected all nations, all industries, all persons and certainly, ALL DESIGNERS.

As we continue to monitor the impact of this pandemic on the design industry worldwide. It’s important that as a community we work together in rethinking what this really means for all our industry and life as a whole. As an Interior Designer and promoter in Africa, I am well privy to the intricacies of our design eco-system and some possible issues we may face after this global war.

Just to give you some perspective - Africa imports $9.5 billion on interior design products from round the world.

My name is Titi Ogufere. I am the president of the International Federation of Interior Architects - IFI, Founder Interior Designers Association of Nigeria and the CEO - Essential Media Group.
