It has been six months since we started our very special tribute project in honour of our late founder, Louis vd Vyver.

Progress has been steady, and it is quite exciting to see Louis’ dream and vision of this property realized, bit by bit.

To kick off the project, we first had to clear the building of all existing interior fixtures, the old thatch roof, rafters and the parts of the structure that does not form part of the new building.

At this point the walls literally started to come down, along with a good number of floors! This was followed up with excavation, levelling and pouring of concrete to lay new foundations.

Then came the excitement of the construction process, with which we are making great progress. The ground floor has been completed and we’re almost done with the first floor, which means that we are just about ready to start with the construction of the new roof!
