OUR ETHOS

Is to create clever homes that are naturally warm in winter and naturally cool in summer. This not only makes for a comfortable home all year but also makes sense environmentally.

Adima Button (Swami)

Adima, also known as Swami, is a creative soul, both musically as well as with timbers. This has seen him build not only highly regarded musical instruments but also furniture and art installations. He has a passion for recycled timbers and found materials, turning them into finely created objects of desire. Recycled materials not only minimises harm on our planet by re-using / upcycling but can also add texture, history and depth to a piece as no virgin material ever could.

Adima was mentored by his uncle for many years, downloading generations of experience which is now being manifested in some amazing, adored and loved pieces around our state, both in the residential as well as the commercial market.

Being deeply creative, Adima can be found in his workshop creating, experimenting and joyfully putting together beautiful pieces, be it tables, benches, drums, ceiling and wall panelling. He takes commissions on request.
