Hillbilly Homes

I got a call from Makwati in Serowe, Botswana. He said that he regularly bought the Farmer’s Weekly to see Hillbilly Homes, but that it mostly featured large, expensive-to-build homes.

This week Jonno designs a two-bedroom double storey flat and a townhouse of three bedrooms for regular reader Herold.

Jonno assists Jeremy with a design for a far-style house in Swaziland.

I received a call from Chris, who said he and his wife are purchasing a cattle farm in North West. They want a home which allows for catering, sub-letting, letting and eventually retiring.

Maaike and Stefaan look to Jonno to help them design a holiday cottage in the Eastern Cape.

Jennifer and Jeffrey contacted me from Kenya. After more than 30 pages of back and forth emailing of conceptualisation of their home, this sketch was the final outcome.

Jonno sketches a simple two-bedroom house situated on a far for Clive and his family.

In passing through the Muden Valley in KZN, I called in at my acquaintances who own a lodge there. We got chatting and Bryan expressed the idea of developing a half dozen or more private chalets.

Jonno gives FWSA readers a special gift for Christmas - a basic home design.

Jonno converts an old milking shed into a beautiful cottage.

I live in Tanzania in quite a remote location. The house site is in a rural setting on a piece of undeveloped land so I don’t have any municipal roads or amenities.
