Apartment in Palm Lakes Estate


Jossi Design has been involved in the decorating of one of the King Palm apartments out at the Palm Lakes Estate in Tinley Manor.  This is a beautiful estate just past Ballito / Salt Rock and it was a pleasure to decorate this apartment.


This apartment has such a wonderful feeling of space, the 3 bedrooms are large, there is a wonderful lounge complete with sliding doors opening onto the huge patio.  This apartment has 3 various patios allowing for amazing views over the lake as well as creating fantastic entertainment areas.  The upstairs loft acts as a study but is large enough to allow for a second lounge, where we have used a sleeper couch so it can also be used as a spare bedroom. 

                   


All of the furniture items and accessories were sourced locally and special thanks must to go @ home in Gateway and their wonderful new furniture range. With a quick turn around required by the client dealing with @ home was a pleasure.


This apartment is for sale at Palm Lakes Estate, for further information please follow the link: http://www.privateproperty.co.za/search/details_new.asp?refpro=H3215_1_47_58

Jossi Design has a new project underway in Umhlanga Rocks. This home is going to be amazing when it is finished, the deadline is extremely soon and we really need to get things moving fast.



This 4 bedroom house (all en-suite) also consists of a formal lounge, tv lounge, large open plan dining room and kitchen, and entertainment area on the second floor complete with bar, dining table and TV area.



Designs are underway for the Ceiling layouts, the lounge fireplace and TV feature wall, and all shopfitting drawings for the headboards, bedside pedestals and Built in Cupboards.



Window treatments need to be decided on, as well as furniture and fabric specifications. This all needs to get underway as soon as possible if we are going to make the deadline the client has given... an exciting challenge!



I am looking forward to this one, I think we are going to have an awesome result. I will keep you posted.

Jossi Furniture

Jossi Design has finally added the furniture page to the website!

It has taken a long time to plan and work on this concept and finally it has taken shape. The idea is really so that we provide an additional service in that furniture we have designed can be purchased by client who want one off pieces for their house, apartment or office space.



All items can be amended in design to suit the requirements of the client whether it be colour, size or number of drawers for example.

Please feel free to visit this page of our website by following the link http://www.jossi.co.za/furniture.htm. Orders can be placed by clicking on the order button on the website and fill in any additional information required so we can contact you to discuss this further.

IID Stand at Decorex

We were very busy this week with our various projects as well as Decorex. As the newly appointed President for the KZN IID, I was given the duty (together with the previous president Lianne van Niekerk) to organise the IID stand and get this set up in time for Decorex which started on Friday.



The IID is the South African Institute of The Interior Design Professions so it was important that we have a stand at Decorex to make people more aware of Institute's existence and how it can serve the public, current members and potential members.


I hope this event was a success for creating awareness about the IID and what it can offer. I am looking forward to the year ahead as president and hope it will help to create a better understanding of our industry.

Congratulations to all IID members who had stands at Decorex, they looked amazing and I hope you get some great feedback.

We are busy with our various projects at the moment but one of the things we are urgently trying to organise the the IID stand for Decorex Durban which opens next weekend. Thank goodness for the friends we have in the industry as we are having to source various furniture items and obje for the stand and our suppliers are being extremely helpful.
The IID is The South African Institute of Interior Design Professions, it is the professional body representing the Interior Design profession in South Africa. It operates nationally with representation in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern and Western Cape. The Institute is dedicated to establishing, promoting and maintaining expertise, professionalism, sound business practice and high standards throughout the industry. Membership of the IID indicates your status as a qualified, experienced and ethical practicing professional.The IID is a Member of IFI, the International Federation of Interior Architects & Designers.
I am happy to have been elected the regional head of the IID and will be going to Johannesburg at the end of the Month to attend the AGM. So there is another challenge ahead for me this year, lets hope it keeps getting better.
