Accomodations

Our Memel accommodations provide a tactile, visceral experience of living in a sustainable, natural environment. They include nicely renovated antique homes, and new construction built of rammed earth – beautifully daylit, and connected to the outside world. Nestled into the Memel Organics smallholding, the guesthouses are located on the future site of the Drakensberg Club and Cohousing Community.

Designed by Caddis PC architects and built by Bright Mariko and Ted Kellogg, the guesthouse is based on contemporary, climate-driven design principles that create an elegant human habitation experience. We built the guesthouse to show what’s possible with new approaches to architecture and construction techniques – ideas we’re also putting to use as we create the Drakensberg Club and Cohousing Community, and that were demonstrated further in a Zamani microcommunity.

With direct-gain, passive-solar construction, the new construction is perfect for Memel’s elevation and climate. The project was purposefully labor-intensive to meet the needs of South Africa’s economy. Cabinetry and finishes were handmade and crafted with reclaimed materials. The floors utilize radiant slabs that are heated by the sun.
