Architect in the Central Drakensberg Region. Beautiful places deserve beautiful spaces
Architect in the Central Drakensberg region; beautiful places deserve beautiful places.
Residential & commercial building designs, council approval plans, construction drawings and project management. New builds or renovations & additions.
I am a fully qualified and registered architectural professional now working out of the Central Drakensberg region. Architecture is a great combination of my passion and talents; I love being creative, problem solving and interacting with people. Although I enjoy all aspects of architecture I especially enjoy residential projects, I think it is a real privilege to work closely with clients to achieve a space that works perfectly for their individual needs. I find renovations especially interesting and I am always struck by how even the smallest positive changes can make a huge difference to a space and the lives of those living in it. I believe that good design is worth investing in, especially in an environment as beautiful as the central Drakensberg region, beautiful spaces deserve beautiful places.
