A glass square table, luxurious black curtains with white sheers, which he bought from Biashara Street, and animal print lampshades, complete the elegant theme. The theme pulls all the white and black elements together, giving the house continuity and cohesion.
DJ Mfalme's black and white expression, textures, and beautiful fabric patterns are edgy. They add sophistication and give the space a tantalising contradiction regarding look and feel.
The dining area colour scheme plays on the black and white nautical combination, giving the interior a striking balance. The white and black small tile pattern wallpaper adds a sense of serenity to the space.
The custom-made dining table and chairs are black. Black curtains and white sheers push the boundaries as far as print and textures are concerned. A zebra print carpet covers the floor. Lampshades in a similar pattern stimulate the imagination and pull the space together.
He gives me a tour of his office, which is the adjacent room. Trophies are meticulously displayed on one of the desks, holding a laptop and a DJ CDJ mixer setup. This was his first investment when he was employed by Capital FM. When I tempt him to play some music, he showcases his artistic skill on the CDJ.
The bedside is adorned with animal print lampshades in black and white. Cute teddy bears and brown, cosy cushions break the monotony.
Food for thought: Seeing as his home features black and white patterns, his favourite animal must be zebra.
