THE CLASSICS MADE MODERN
Welcome to Brooklyn Renaissance AphroChic is very excited to introduce our second collection celebrating modern, soulful style for your home. When we began working on our new collection we knew immediately that we wanted to focus on one of our favorite places in the world: Brooklyn, NY. No other city, or borough as it were, is so full of innovative designers, artists, photographers, and more. Each time we visit we can’t help but feel that Brooklyn is on the cusp of a brand new renaissance. We are constantly inspired by Brooklyn’s soul, artistic flair, and unique cultural style. This collection is both a tribute to Brooklyn, and a celebration of a new kind of modern design that truly embraces the cultures that shape us all.

AphroChic is always searching for new ways to bring soulful expressions to the modern home. With this collection, we have expanded beyond pillows to introduce a new line of wallpaper, tabletop and shower curtains that will fit beautifully and seamlessly into any interior. We welcome you, and hope you enjoy the Brooklyn Renaissance collection. Jeanine Hays Creative Director & Founder
