By David Atangana

A Cameroonian craftsman is giving a new touch to modern furniture and interior decoration.

Kouemo Rostand, operating in Bafang, West Region, and Logpom in the Littoral Region exploits local materials — bringing out the best that is needed to make a house look good.

With the use of raphia and Indian bamboo, Rostand crafts ceilings, chairs, and interior decorations.

“I am a local craftsman dealing with raphia and Indian bamboo transformation. I’ve been into this activity for fifteen years,” Rostand told MMI.

Rostand added that “I specialized in the manufacture of the local ceiling, household furniture, and decorations using raphia and Indian bamboo.”
