The design is inspired by patterns on Zulu clay pots, for which the Nala family are renowned. Lengths of tiles were cast in bronze to serve as non-slip strips and lend a beauty and warmth to the Great African Steps and the courtroom. The integration of traditional craft to the building adds to a sense of belonging and placemaking.
