Student Abstract

The Integration of contemporary African cultural elements for sustainable interior spaces forms the basis of this research paper. This paper will seek to establish the application of Moroccan Architecture alongside renewable materials such as bamboo in the creation of appealing, contemporary and sustainable spaces for the Kenyan hospitality industry. The research will also examine the ability of design to promote African Cultural Heritage in the hospitality industry using locally available sustainable materials and at the same retaining appealing and contemporary designs.
