This 3-bedroom, all en-suite bungalow brief was straightforward: A simple family home that serves it’s purpose. Great client!
Set against the dramatic slopes of Lukenya, this bungalow is designed to embrace both elevation and simplicity. The site’s steep terrain informed a thoughtful architectural response. A home that steps lightly on the land while opening to sweeping views of the surrounding plains.
Natural stone cladding anchors the structure to its setting, while large windows draw in light and connect the interiors with the outdoors. The gentle ascent of the front steps sets the tone for the home’s rhythm: calm, grounded, and quietly elegant.
Inside, the design focuses on comfort and flow, with clean lines, warm textures, and an emphasis on natural ventilation. Every detail, from the overhanging roof to the restrained material palette, works to balance form and function, a reflection of Lukenya’s rugged beauty and tranquil atmosphere.
This project captures our belief that architecture should rise from its landscape, not dominate it.
