PUBLISHER’S MEMO ZIM US$3

Just to fathom any design is a milestone, let alone embarking on a quest to redo
a project from scratch can be a rage-inducing experience but Architrave Design
Group has creatively brought life to local design concepts through the inspiring
new look at ARIPO Headquarters on 11 Natal Belgravia Harare. Engage with
us in this fabulous design brief and be surely satisfied by some of Zimbabwe’s
construction gurus as we showcase the distinct specialists at work.

2D930 lighting range will illuminate any room be it in your office or home.The beauty
of this range is not only found in its aesthetics but also in its manufacturing
process as local craftsmen execute the Elliot Beattie décor gratification.
isaster relief architecture is a must adopt trend as rains have damaged
most of our infrastructure. Our nation needs to mobilise resources
and avoid future human and animal life loss. Serious pioneering into
adaptive architecture is now a prerequisite as climate expects have
cited a permanent shift in global weather patterns.

FOCUS on the world’s most famous female architect, the late Zaha Hadid and
her legendary ground breaking innovations which transform notions of what can
be achieved in concrete, steel and glass. A trendsetter for 21st century designs.
These design visions are statements of purpose in design; New design.

Own the outdoor feel indoors, create your own mini ecosystem, and let’s
make terrariums.

ARIPO was initially called ESARIPO – the
English Speaking African Industrial Protection
Organisation – and this was later amended in
1985 to include other African states that were
predominantly French, German or Portuguese
speaking. In 2003 the organisation underwent a
second name change from the African Regional
Industrial Property Organisation to the African
Regional Intellectual Property Organisation, in
order to include a wider mandate encompassing
copyrights and other related rights.

The organisation was initially set up at Sheria
House in Nairobi, Kenya. When it was first
established, like many new organisations,
it experienced a number of financial and
logistical challenges, until the newly created
Republic of Zimbabwe offered to host the
Secretariat awarding it diplomatic status
and other benefits, including free office
accommodation for the first five years. The
organisation was re-located to Harare, initially
at Electra House, on Samora Machel Avenue
in the CBD, where it shared the premises
with the Zimbabwe Intellectual Property
Office (Comptroller of Patents, Trademarks
and Industrial Design). As the organisation
developed and grew it began to need extra
office space to cater for more staff. The
Zimbabwean government then allocated the
organisation more generous accommodation in
Bryanston House in George Silundika Avenue.

Southland is proud to be involved in the
infrastructural development
of Riverside Walk Mall.

There a still a few finishing touches to be completed.
The lift needs to be installed to allow disabled access
to the second floor, and new glass banisters need to
be fitted on the staircases. New furniture has been
ordered, in particular for the Director General’s office,
and delivery will be taken in the near future. The
reception area near the DG’s office will become an
information centre, also with new fittings and fixtures.

The extensive investment in their new headquarters
shows ARIPO’s commitment to Zimbabwe as well their
optimism for the future growth of the organisation.
The building meets all their current needs (and more)
meaning that won’t be relocating for many years to
come. This imposing and striking building is set to
become a landmark feature of Harare’s architectural
heritage.

and having a drink, or getting inspiration for

easy to get as it sits neatly at the back end of the National
Gallery of Zimbabwe. It is a space that has changed many
times through the years, but this look trumps the rest.

The standout feature must be the murals (done by talented
young artists who were part of the NGZ’s education
program) to most people, but we found that to be the
repurposed wooden cable reels. They are used together
with a glass top as tables – brilliant. The sheer amount of
colour makes it a lively place, even against the darker grey
stony walls at the end of the space. The large glass wall
helps light it sufficiently through the day, with views of the
outside garden dotted with amazing sculpture. A few other
features include paintings, crate tables with tiny java bound
stools, a bottle top inspired clock, vintage hanging lights
over the counter and of cause the great service courtesy of

TGErOMeEnTRdIC

EOMETRY in design always conveys a sense
of sophistication or even complexity, futuristic
at times and nostalgic in another instance.
Yet geometry is nothing but numbers made visible.
It can be measured and calculated. Early geometers
understood the relationships between numbers
by looking at the way geometric shapes related to one
another.

Africa was always the home of geometric design but the
trend has gone global over the last decades. We show
a few examples here of how geometry is influencing
every part of modern design. Keep a lookout for more
geometrical designs throughout this issue.

INTERIOR DESIGN

The fascination with geometry is re-emerging today. Shapes are geometrical and
circles, squares, triangles, diamonds are made up of regular patterns that are
easily recognizable. This regularity suggests organization and efficiency. It suggests
structure.

Bathroom Trends 2017 / 2018 TRENDS
Designs, Colors and Materials

T first glimpse it may seem that the bathroom is the dullest and not
fashionable space of the home – tributary to its functionality and prosaic
means – but if you think about it is one of the places that you spend a
lot of your time – so why not to let your imagination fly free and turn the space into
an emanation of style and beauty. And here is where we can help. What are the
trends for the next year when it comes to bathroom design, colors and materials?
What will be fashionable, stylish and easy to maintain? What are the latest creations
and innovations of the most renowned designers and brands?

Combinations of natural materials to create
something new and exciting

Well, first – keep in mind that 2017 is going to be
marked by the return to the organic to the natural and
the unalterable search of new and functional.

So when it comes to a bathroom design the direction
will be: super clean colors, seamless lines and
practical and simple arrangement of spaces but
with the dash of organic coziness and elegance. So
let your imagination and creativity flow and turn the
functionality of the bathroom into a play of art – a
contemporary creation of style.

Combine – be bold

When one uses a combination of modern and organic,
it creates a dynamic atmosphere that evokes clean
and stylish sensation. The juxtaposition of wood and
stone to synthetics is very clever, combinative and
suitable for many variations of design. In this image the
Lariana by Patricia Urquiola for Agape, the bathtub of
reduced dimensions, is laid amongst the warmth of the
wood and the shine of the ceramic tiles. A combination
supplemented by easy to maintain synthetic materials.
A modernistic yet homey composition.

Innovative usage of timeless materials

Another natural material that brings back the domain of nature into our homes is
undoubtedly the wood. It is clear that the innovations and research in the sphere of
material usage allow the rich variety of timber, stone, metal and ceramics to be used
in a new unknown before way. This project of Piero Lissoni for Boffi and their series
Garden gives us an excellent example of the elegant combinations between natural
materials that can be suitable for a modern bathroom design. A base of wood with a

Consider darker colors

As you know, the dark and moody colors make a huge
comeback at the scene of interior design fashion in this
season and your bathroom – if used right will exude
luxury and relaxation. Keeping in mind the tendency
of usage of natural materials, cement tiles are going
to be very popular this year. The most on-trend color
this season, without a doubt, will be the gray. And
make no mistake the gray may sound dull but it works
wonderfully in a rich variety of shades and hues. It adds
moody or tranquil, elegant or dynamic atmosphere to
