We redesigned a crèche for 32 kids in an under-resourced community — and turned it into a Montessori-inspired haven of joy, learning, and dignity. 4 jobs created. 32 families supported. Beauty + belonging at the heart. #UbuntuDesign #ECD #ArchitectureForGood

Someone once said home was her dad—because no matter who she came back as, she was always welcome. That’s the feeling we designed into The Black Prince, our new apt complex near Durban’s South Beach. Big love to 🇵🇱 Bartek Wenta & @WeronikaDenga for leading the way. 🏡🌍✨

A few years ago, we reimagined Durban’s Point Waterfront—believing the minimum requirement to dream is a place to call home. Mid-income designer apartments, African art, retail & soul. Would you stay in an Ubuntu Home? 🌍🏡 #AfricanLuxury #UbuntuHome #UrbanRenewal

Four years ago, we reimagined our founder’s family home—the place where his mom grew up. At first, we weren’t sure about sharing it since it looked so different from our other projects. But now, we see it for what it is: a return to home, history, and heart. ❤️ #UbuntuHome

In this reimagined concept design for we envisioned an inclusive space where you could stay or even own a portion of the Hotel that didn't just turn profit but that directly benefited low-income communities by utilizing some of the proceeds to build homes for families in need.

In this design for a Physiotherapy Center for children UDG's concept was to create an environment that felt more like a home than a facility. The aim was to explore an affordable & creative solution for a therapeutic home. A space promoting a sense of dignity for its occupants.
