Nuun Designs has developed a universal and versatile building system of standard interlinking frames in various sizes. These frames act as a canvas for creating unique buildings, while still benefiting from economies of scale, modularity, and standardization. Our Lego-like system allows for unlimited options in finishes, functions, sizes, and assembly configuration, making it fully adaptable and interchangeable as the owner’s needs change. Our goal is to bring back the joy and satisfaction of playing with building blocks from childhood, inspiring boundless imagination and creativity; Where clients can design, build and live in their creations.
Our building system is based on standard cargo container sizes, making the distribution by road, rail, and sea simple and efficient. The frames, which form the backbone of the building system, include micro pods (MIPs), which house completed components such as bathrooms and kitchens, and macro pods (MAPs), which form the larger central open spaces of a room. MAPs contain MIPs during transport, reducing logistical costs. Essentially, MAPs are the space, and MIPs are the walls.
Our units lightly touch the ground with piled foundations, making it is suitable for almost all topographies and types of soil.
Nuun Designs strives to create sustainable and functional spaces that prioritise human health and wellness. We firmly believe in the importance of incorporating elements of nature into our design through exposure to natural light, greenery, and organic materials. Biophilic design can improve physical, mental, and emotional well-being which ultimately, creates healthier, more pleasant environments for people to live, work, and play in.
Our designs guarantee thermal comfort throughout the year by surpassing the Rand values building code requirements of the most challenging climatic zones in South Africa. By strategically selecting and placing various insulation and isolation types, our designs effectively minimize both thermal and noise transmission, creating cozy living spaces all year round
Through the standardisation of finishes and module designs, we have been able to kerb costs typically associated with bespoke designs, thus bringing premium finishes to our building system.
