Rebecca collaborated with the Malian designer Boubacar Doumbia as part of Graphic Africa, an exhibition showcasing a uniquely African aesthetic. Boubacar Doumbia’s Le Ndomo textile workshop specialises in natural fabric staining and dyeing techniques. Rebecca and Boubacar created a limited-edition textile collection using 'bogolan', a traditional mud-dye process. This technique was explored for its contemporary possibilities, celebrating its African identity while giving it a new voice for Western markets, resulting in interior textiles exclusive to Habitat UK.
