Sharing a first look at a 6 month renovation we've been busy with. We're at the final stages and we received the kitchen Island today.

Not a normal installation by any measure! This beautiful piece of sandstone from the Northern Cape will anchor the kitchen with its solid energy!

Getting it in there was not a small feat, but it's done! Keep an eye for finishing videos over the next 2 weeks..

Local solutions for this house!

Digging out for the foundation footings, septic tank etc we have a big stash of rocks. So we found another use for it!

This sandstone comes from the site and has been carefully laid by our stone masons. Grouting to follow.. And then, we'll do a first for us, we will grind and polish this to a fine smooth finish, showing the natural beauty of this rock floor.

Stunning, sustainable solution that will last a lifetime. That's what we're all about!

A new chapter for Ecowerks.� Same hands-on approach, same commitment to building responsibly — now with a refreshed look to match our journey.

Our new logo brings in the dodecahedron, a symbol of structure, craft and the natural forms that inspire our work. It reflects where Ecowerks is headed as we focus on turnkey sustainable building in some of the most remote and challenging locations.
We’re still the team that builds where others hesitate, and we’re excited to keep pushing the boundaries of what sustainable, bespoke homes can be.

Keep following our sustainable building journey. ♻️

The team! It takes many elements to make a successful build and company. A good team is essential!

I am truly grateful for these people that work super hard to make our client's dreams a reality.

10 years ago I started with myself and our family wagon with a few tools. Today we have 2 vehicles with 10 staff and many tools! What a journey it's been so far!

This marks our biggest project to date, trusting we will move onwards and upwards!

Cheers to the people that make this possible 🙏
