Safari Living

Safari Living explores the neglected area of Tanzania’s safari design heritage, celebrating the style – sometimes relaxed and low-key, sometimes eclectic and contemporary - of the country’s luxury safari lodges, while also visiting private homes to find out how the culture and natural beauty of Tanzania have contributed to its finest living spaces. Safari Living will showcase contemporary design and architecture in Tanzania’s wilderness areas, and provide a historical context for the coming of the safari tradition to Tanganyika in the last two centuries with a series of character sketches. The book will also highlight the varied and unusual wilderness experiences available to Tanzania’s safari visitors – from walking through pristine bush to a dawn balloon safari over the Serengeti. * Over 224 pages of full colour photographs * Examines the interior design styles of all the best safari camps and lodges in Tanzania * Looks at vibrant modern lodges and classic canvas tented camps and traces ethnic influences in modern safari design * Chapters on safari activities – ballooning, fly camping, walking, boats * History of safari in Tanzania and biographies of the old ‘safari hands’
