All the best, if we used everyone's timber by now Uganda would be a desert. Sustainable timber sourcing is the soul of long term timber housing in Africa.

I have spent my day at the site to check on the progress of another wonderful house. I can say the future is bright. These timber homes are becoming something else.




Another one handed over to the owner. This week is for finalising projects. Just today, this monopitch one bedroom house has been successfully handed over to the owner. The house actually looked beautiful when the facade was painted white. Not bad ending the week😎

Munich🥰
We have successfully handed over this house today’s afternoon. Has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. 3 of the bedrooms have wider sliding doors that open to the decking. More light into the building given the wider panoramic windows. More hectares of forests have been sustained…

Wow 😍😍
