Karel Keuler Architects uses Caddie for modernist South African Architecture

Caddie.jpg

This modernist house is situated in Eagle Canyon Golf Estate on a restricted width north facing corner stand with open space and views to the east and south. The narrow north facing width forced an elongated design to the east and west. The design layout is essentially a combination of rectangular brickwork and concrete cubes staggered to ensure that all living and bedroom areas obtain the crucial north exposure.

When asking users what we can offer that really makes a difference to them, the most frequently heard answer of late has been some variant on 'Personal Interaction'.

We have instigated several things recently to address this:

In Africa we have embarked on a number of regional tours; so far Cape Town, Namibia and Nelspruit have been visited. In the UK we are working with the CUKUG to hold an additional northern meeting, and we have appointed a reseller in Iceland!

All in all a pretty busy schedule considering the number of public holidays recently.

‘I love using Caddie and actually hate my old system if I have to go back to it....And Caddie is so much faster too; I now draw out a plan in half an hour that used to take me an hour and a half in my old system.’  Kenny Wotherspoon
