Apartment in Umhlanga

I went to see the progress at the Apartment in Umhlanga that we have been working on for the last few months and it is great to see the it coming together now. The clients are moving their things in and they seem to be really happy with the outcome.

Above is a photo showing the wallpapered TV unit and fireplace that we designed. The wallpaper was installed on Wednesday and I had to take a photo when I saw the final effect. It is looking great. I also love the tree obje that the client bought from Weylandts that has just opened in Umhlanga. Jossi Design was lucky enough to get invited to the launch last week which was a great evening.

The carpets were being installed in the bedrooms when I was on site and it really makes the space feel bigger when the final finishes start to go in, you can really get a better sense of the space. Again this simple wall panel for the TV was designed by Jossi Design as well as the recess next to it which houses the fireplace for this main bedroom with shelves above.

House in Sherwood

Jossi Design has taken on a new client in the Sherwood Area. This 3 bedroom house is being currently being renovated and the client has asked Jossi Design to do the electrical layouts, ceiling and lighting layouts and chosing all the finishes.

The open plan lounge, dining room and kitchen allows for a spacious feel, and this is accentuated by the double volume space at the entrance.

The bedrooms are large, mainly due to the extensions already done by the client. The Main Bedroom is to have a bathroom enclosed completely in glass so that the bathroom is almost part of the bedroom.

The client is in a hurry to move in so we should see this project moving quickly. We will keep updating the blog with photos of the progress. For more information on our completed projects please visit our website www.jossi.co.za

Apartment on Marine Drive, Umhlanga

The apartment on Marine Drive in Umhlanga is coming along nicely with the client set to move in in about 2 weeks time. I am very impressed with the turn around time on this, the client has moved things along really nicely and it is starting to take shape.

We have just chosen the wallpaper for the TV unit and we are looking forward to seeing the final product. The TV unit has a recessed fireplace and a floating concrete slab. We are just getting the final earthcote technique put onto the slab and we will seal and polish this.

The passage area seen in the photo above is going to have a server unit that houses all the audio and visual equipement so that this does not interfer with the TV unit design in the lounge. The wall colour is very tranquil and allows for art and mirrors to be added where we want to create focus areas.

We are excited to see the finished project, this is a wonderful apartment and so much has been done by the client to create a feeling of open space.

The client has maximised the natural light coming into the apartment by using skylights in the various rooms and have chosen sliding doors that do not hinder the views of the ocean. For more information on our completed projects visit www.jossi.co.za

Jossi Design has been awarded the tender for the renovations of the existing offices of Umgeni Water in Pietermaritzburg. We are very excited about this new project, we had some amazing ideas and designs we submitted in our tender and these have now been approved by Umgeni Water.

The above photo shows the existing entrance of the building. The reception area will be part of Phase 2 of the project. Phase 1 (where we will start work) will be a renovation of the first floor area.

There are many wonderful waiting areas within the building that need to be redesigned and decorated to incorporate a more contemporary feel and we can pick up on more company branding.

The building is so interesting with the long tunnels and there is so much that can be done to lift the spaces and make them more interesting.

The boardroom and various offices also require a redesign, it is an exciting new project and we are looking forward to seeing the overall effect. We will keep updating photos of the progress on site, for more information about completed projects by Jossi Interior Design please go to our website... www.jossi.co.za

Apartment in Umhlanga Rocks

The Apartment in Umhlanga Rocks is progressing steadily with completion set for the end of June. The photo below shows the entrance feature wall in grey and silver riven stone.

The Kitchen is going to have high gloss acrylic doors imported from Germany. The kitchen is set to be white with a white caesar stone top. The client insisted on a brick feature wall in the kitchen at the position of the hob and extractor. This resulted in Justine and Jocelyn from Jossi Design going to Atomic Building suppliers to find old bricks from a demolished house. We had to dig out each brick that we wanted to ensure the client go the desired look.

Tiling is coming along slowly. They have now finished the floor tiles and are moving onto bathroom walls. We are very happy with the tiles chosen as they are going to give the apartment a modern look.

Mishi Jones' guys are hard at work skimming walls. In the background you can see some of the paint colour samples on the wall.
