We are currently launching a project that aims to deliver WASH facilities to the homeless population of Cape Town. We will base our three facility designs (a trailer, a bus-type mobile, and a stationary facility) on LavaMae's designs - https://www.architectmagazine.com/project-gallery/lava-mae_o Scope of requirements: We are looking for technical designs for 3 options for a WASH Facility: Retrofitted Bus Trailer Static Building design Technical Drawings Min requirements for these facilities would be 2 toilets & 2 showers, we can expand from there as applicable and add in other elements, for example, we got quite a lot of feedback about the needs for Laundry/Dryer services (The homeless have nowhere safe to let their clothes dry when they hand wash them). *NB It important that all of the spaces are calm, safe and welcoming Tech specs for Showers from Lava Mae. we of course need to make sure that the design is applicable to SA context and situation Looking forward to receiving your quote. Kind regards, Carla
I would like to extend the existing 3 floor house on all levels to a create a modern house. Ideally I would like to use steel frame and glass to take advantage of the views. Currently, the ground floor has an open plan kitchen and lounge, the middle floor has 4 bedrooms and the top floor has a family room and garages. I would like to incorporate two guest flatlets as part of the extension.
We are looking to build a 3 bedroom house in Vermont (Hermanus). We have already drawn up the floorplan and elevations (as we know exactly what we want) and looking for a quote to have the plans professionally done and submitted. We can also do with some advice on the roof structure/s and any other suggestions that might benefit us. The plot is level and the main part of the house is on ground level, with double volume, cutting into the slab over the garage.
