Johannesburg is a dynamic city. As the economic heart of South Africa, it is equal parts grit and glam.

With many global companies choosing to establish their headquarters here, we’re proud to have played a part in creating spaces for some of the businesses and thought leaders shaping the city.

From global leaders, to local stars - we have created distinctive interiors for companies from BCG, to Nandos, Spotify to Traxtion.

Johannesburg locals, tell us: which space in the city inspires you?

Never say never.

Purple is not a colour we ever imagined using … until we designed Spotify’s first African office in Rosebank, Johannesburg.

Paired with the Dokter and Misses Big Bang lamp in mist, the combination is surprisingly fabulous!

Which colours have surprised you in a space?

On one of our early site visits to Mana Pools in Zimbabwe, we found an old rusted barrel in the bush riddled with bullet holes from years of target practice. At the time, this barrel became useful for casting light in a remote and largely unpowered landscape. But somewhere between those visits and the finished lodge, its perforated surface turned into the inspiration behind the steelwork patterns seen throughout Molori Mashuma.

It's not unusual to experience a scene like this from your breakfast table at Molori Mashuma, the luxury tented safari lodge in Zimbabwe's Mana Pools National Park.

Our team designed every space of this 1000 square metre lodge to keep the wilderness in full view. Saturated in pomegranate, ochre and teal, with faux thatch walls, perforated steelwork and textiles drawn from the colours of the surrounding woodland, the finishes are bold, joyful and at home in one of Africa's most extraordinary reserves.

How do you make an exclusive-use private safari villa feel distinctive?

At Singita in Tanzania, we looked to texture, craft, art and collaboration to break the scale down into moments that feel warm, considered and personal. The villa’s lounge and dining area featured here achieves this with a special, hand-woven artwork by Coral and Hive hanging on the wall.

Roller blinds are the only thing that stand between a guest and the Zimbabwean wilderness at luxury tented safari lodge, Molori Mashuma.

Set among established trees in the heart of Mana Pools National Park, the interiors take their cues directly from the landscape: Oxblood tones, ochre and the muted greens of the woodland.

Since 1954, Paraa Safari Lodge has watched decades of history move along the banks of the Victoria Nile in Uganda's Murchison Falls National Park. Designing here meant earning the right to add to the remarkable history rather than rewrite it.

This mural, developed with a local artist, Wamala Kyeyune, and located in the Paraa Safari Lodge, anchors the space in its landscape and community.

We love a clever little detail.

At toast&co, this fine-striped trim follows the curves of each chair and bolster for a small, custom moment that adds just enough interest to make the whole space feel considered.

If you’re in Joburg, visit toast & co. to experience it for yourself.

We loved working on the Oggie Oak Flooring Parkhurst showroom alongside their team, and seeing pieces from Anatomy Design sitting so naturally in the dappled sunlight.

Working on historic projects along the Nile’s banks has been an experience our team won't soon forget.

The Nile is often imagined as the great river of Egypt, vast and ancient and immediately recognisable. But long before it reaches those famous banks, it begins in Uganda as something wilder and less charted, winding through papyrus wetlands and floodplains that feel a world away from the delta.
