Renovations to Spiga D'Oro on Florida Road

Jossi Design is very proud to be involved in the renovations taking place at Spiga D'oro on Florida Road. This is mainly an extension being done at the back area where other restaurants used to be located.

We have been extremely busy trying to get everything together, being the end of the year alot of suppliers have been closing off their orders for the year. We managed to get alot of our orders in before closing date so despite all the pressure, it all seems to be coming together.

I do not want to reveal too much about the design and the vision that the owners have for Spiga. I am looking forward to the completion of the new Piazza area and to see the outcome, which I am sure is going to be amazing.

We will keep you updated on the developments at Spiga. We are now also working on a new restaurant due to open in Durban somewhere over April/ May next year. Look out for future blogs on this project and for more information on our completed projects or our services visit www.jossi.co.za

For Cake's Sake

I finally managed to pop round to "For Cake's Sake" this week to take some photos of the end result. The items on display are mouthwatering!

The bright yet pretty colours we chose in the original concept have been painted in stripes on the back wall to create a visual impact on entering the shop.

The small space has been used cleverly to maximize the display area. The soft voile in the window has added a touch of warmth.

The shop has a wonderfully light and happy atmosphere, it is fun and playful!

Please look out for the shop which is located at 69 Cowey Road. Remember orders can be placed for special occassions and brochures are available at the shop. Contact Rizwana 082 778 6257.

New Durban Restaurant

Jossi Design met with potential clients this week regarding their new restaurant due to open within Durban in April/ May 2010. This new restaurant is revolves around a colonial african theme. We are very please to have presented to this client and hope that we will able to add value to this project.

We put together a powerful presentation including concept boards and suggested finishes. We are holding thumbs that the potential client will be pleased with our efforts and we hope to hear from them soon.

We are also busy with the renovations for Spiga D'Oro on Florida Road! I am looking forward to the outcome here.

Another possible project that we are looking to be involved in is set design for a movie due to be filmed in Durban. This is timed to attract further interest in South Africa for the Soccer World Cup. Again we hope that this potential project comes about as we would love to be involved in this.

It seems that there are some exciting times ahead.

For Cake's Sake

There is a new cake shop due to open at 69 Cowey Road. Jossi Design has had the pleasure of working with the owner to create her vision for the interior design.

It seems to all be coming together with the shop due to open this Wednesday, 4th November 2009. It is very exciting and we all plan to support this new addition to our area.

As work is still in progress I do not have any photos to post as yet, but I will ensure we get some photos of the completed interior which will hopefully be available for viewing shortly.

But in the meantime see below the leaflet I have just received showing the items that can be purchased. You must also feel free to pop into the shop and view the various brochures of cakes that can be ordered. We wish "For Cake's Sake" the best of luck!

Christmas is coming

The weeks are really flying and we are so busy with projects that need to be completed by Christmas. This means orders must be placed as soon as possible before suppliers close their orders for the year... no pressure!

Above is a photo of one of the schemes we have put together for a house in Westville. With the accent colour being a deep grey/blue, wallpaper is being used on feature walls and florals are used on the roman blinds for the kitchen. A delicate voile for the lounge curtaining is going to help soften the room but will allow the light to still enter the lounge.

Last week we attended a launch at Home Fabrics and as usual it was an awesome event. On Thursday evening I attended the 3rd year portflio presentation and awards evening at The Durban Institute of Technology (DUT) at the City Campus. This was a real eye opener as new drawing and presentation methods are being used which I found very impressive. Congratulations to students and staff for all their hard work and for putting together a very informative and enjoyable evening.

One of the events that I am looking forward to this week is the Casino Royale evening in celebration of CV Project's 12th Anniversary. Should be an interesting evening.
