Home Makeover
This interior blends Modern Minimalist and Bohemian elements to create a space that feels both high-end and deeply inviting. By pairing clean lines and a neutral palette with natural textures—like the woven pendant lights, warm timber countertops, and rugged stone feature wall—the home achieves a sophisticated yet "lived-in" warmth. It is a perfect example of a functional, modern layout elevated by organic materials and earthy soul.
Bedroom Refurbishment
We designed this suite for a high schooler who needed a space that felt mature, calming, and connected to nature. We opened up the layout to create a seamless flow between the en-suite and the bedroom.
Design details to spot:
- The river pebble shower floor for natural texture.
- The sage green feature walls to bring the outdoors in.
- The personal touch: The large canvas above the bed is actually a photograph I took! Capturing the client’s passion for horses and incorporating it into the design makes the space truly hers.

Guest House - Lounge & Room Refurbishment
Bringing luxury to life on a deadline, this stunning project in Pecanwood, George, showcases the power of meticulous planning and decisive execution.
After flying down to Georfe, I had just six days to transform this house into a curated home. From the initial arrival to the final styling, every hour was dedicated to ensuring the space reflected the client’s vision while maintaining the highest standards of design.
The result is a seamless, sophisticated interior that proves even the most ambitious timelines can achieve breathtaking results.
Ingele Lodge - A Bespoke Limpopo Transformation - Room Refurbishment
Nestled in the heart of Limpopo, this extensive renovation at Ingele Lodge involves a complete redesign of 30 rooms across 15 distinct units. In collaboration with Tristek Construction, we are breathing new life into every corner, ensuring that no two spaces are alike.
Each unit is being treated as a unique canvas, featuring its own bespoke design and style to provide guests with a truly curated and personal experience. From structural updates to the final interior touches, every room is being "completely done over" to blend modern luxury with the lodge's natural surroundings.
The Team:
Tristek Construction is handling all the heavy lifting—removing the old thatched roofs, lifting the ceilings to create volume, and completely revamping the bathrooms and kitchens.
Bedroom Refurbishment
3 reasons why this spare room works (and how we kept it affordable!)
- The Slider: That custom door isn't just a space-saver for the en-suite bathroom; it’s a piece of art.
- The Palette: Rust and terracotta tones warm up the cool tile floors, making the room feel cozy instantly.
- The Budget: We worked with a strict budget to prove that a high-end look is achievable for anyone. Affordable doesn't mean "cheap" when you have the right team.
The Team:
As a husband-and-wife duo, this is what we do. I (Díne-Lý) handle the design vision, and my husband @tristekconstruction handles the renovations and build. Working together allows us to bridge the gap between "design" and "construction" seamlessly, giving you a beautiful result that actually fits your budget.
Bathroom Renovation
We turned this bathroom into a modern organic sanctuary. The goal was to bring the outdoors in, using natural textures and a soft, neutral palette to complement that stunning view.
Key design elements we love:
- The woven pendant lights for warmth.
- Textured wall tiles adding depth.
- Brass fixtures for a touch of luxury.
- That freestanding tub with a view!
