With uninterrupted views south across open plains and distant hills from each of Loapi’s homes, it is possible to witness the play of colour, light and shadow across sky and land from sunrise to sunset. Sustainability was the watchword when planning every aspect of the camp. Tucked into the contours of the Korannaberg hills, the six canvas and steel exclusive-use homes embrace the principles of low-impact design and show a deep respect for the environment. In every aspect of its design, each home exudes quiet, restrained luxury in spaces that never compete with what you’ve come to see. Just like the semi-arid environment, there is richness in the sparseness. Natural fibres, colours and contrasting textures are layered luxuriously, including in the bedrooms where the sheets are woven from sustainably grown long-staple Indian cotton and the super-soft, pure alpaca throws are made from fibres locally grown and woven in South Africa. In the living areas, furniture is smooth, voluptuous, and curvaceous, while underfoot bare wood and pure wool rugs provide comfort throughout the year.
