Other areas are Ibadan, Osogbo, Oyo, Maiduguri, Zaira and Kano. However, wedded wrought iron and production with local household needs is traditionally and culturally a way of life in Nigeria and some other African countries. It is the collection of different fabrics together that make those symbols that have been collected from various groups which are presented artistically through patterns of fabric decoration and design. Meanwhile, this study will examine the Cultural Significance of Adire fabrics for Contemporary Nigeria Interior Design; Interviewed with interior designers, interior industries will be conducted and asked about their journey so far in the industry.
