FANCOURT

koop — Tue, 13 May 2014 09:42:46 +0000

Bespoke furniture for a private residence in Fancourt Estate in George. Fancourt is a further evolution of this thinking and shows greater confidence in designing strong form. The brief called for a slightly pared down farm aesthetic. I am dealing with the way kitchens are always expressed as frames, a counter top on a base, often the top is connected to the leg, or forms the leg. Here the counter is integrated into the body of the unit, a thick surface, modulated by the profile of the top drawer. The profile refers to an interest in monastic form. Quarter cut veneer and solid timber is critical to the resolution of the furniture. Handles are integrated into the design and used to provide rebate, shadow and edge. This is probably the most technically advanced and complex set of built in units I have designed. Beautifully realised by DeStyl workshop in George.

Elements: Freestanding four-poster bed, built in beds with storage, built in cupboards in all bedrooms and vanity units for all bathrooms. Kitchen units including tea coffee station, kitchen island and stove unit.

CENTOCOW

koop — Tue, 13 May 2014 07:44:08 +0000

A visitor facility at the Centocow Monastery near Creighton in Southern KZN with a 50 seater dining room and 12 bed accommodation was developed in one of the original Trappist buildings. The furniture for this project was designed to be delivered by the carpentry workshop established at the Dalton Private Reserve. The language of furniture developed for the Dalton workshop fits with the craftsmanship and monastic aesthetic of the pioneering monks.

Angela Shaw and Sara Bustin of Koop delivered a simple interior and full turn-key fit out, inspired by the iconography of the monastery and the lives of the monks, that blends seamlessly with the existing tradition.
