Project Overview
A countryside retreat with modern amenities and traditional Kenyan influences. This project blends contemporary living with rural charm, creating a peaceful sanctuary that honors local architectural heritage.
The Challenge
Creating a home that would function as both a working farm property and a comfortable residence with modern amenities, while respecting the rural context and traditional building practices.
Our Solution
Our design incorporated traditional Kenyan architectural elements with modern construction techniques. We created distinct zones for living and farm operations, connected by beautiful landscaped pathways. The home's orientation maximizes natural light and passive heating/cooling.
