We are committed to the harmony of purpose and form and believe that spaces achieve their full meaning when the natural elements of light, wind and water are in balance with the affairs of human life. Our dedication to finding the equilibrium of beauty of experience and environmental sustainability informs our practice and designs.

At Wolf + Wolf, we see built form as the result of a process that considers our cultural and natural environments as part of a single, regulated, living organism. We use innovative design strategies to achieve holistic projects by seamlessly integrating life-supporting systems into the fabric of the building and broader site. 

Our strategies include the use of sustainable and appropriate construction materials and techniques; bioclimatic design (passive house) that supports holistic eco-system functioning; sustainable water capture and re-use and integrated nutrient cycling.

We pride ourselves on being strong advocates for the hemp industry in South Africa and are leaders in Hemp construction nationally. Having built and been involved in a number of hemp built homes and, more recently, larger building projects, we understand the benefits and limitations of this material. The benefits to personal and environmental health are substantial, and for this reason, hemp is our material of choice for non-loadbearing elements.
