============================
 

It’s an incredible community we live in, complimented by a beautiful Baja desert environment. As the Managing Partner and The Creative Department of Casa de Vos en Construction, I have been working  in construction here for almost 17 years and have had the pleasure and privilege to be involved in the building and shaping of some of our community. To stay abreast of my field and deepen my personal commitment to the industry, I am in the final stages of completing my Architectural degree and am currently working on my thesis. The theme is ‘Environmental Residential Architecture’ and I am very interested in speaking with people who have built in the East Cape utilizing any sort of alternative or sustainable building materials or construction methods. If you, or anyone you may know, have experience in sustainable or alternative building construction, I would be most interested in speaking with you – coffee or tea is on me :-)
