ABOUT SKY HACIENDA

June Donaldson and Edward Garry live at an altitude of 2,600 metres in Mosoj Llajta, Yotala, 20 minutes from the colonial city of Sucre in Bolivia, South America. Using earth and stones from the land, we have sculpted beautiful buildings which compliment the high desert landscape and incorporate creative and innovative elements of design.

We have designed a high quality hotel in Sucre for guests who want to get off the treadmill of travelling from city to city in South America. At Sky Hacienda you can dictate your own timing and choose how to enjoy your stay, whether it is doing very little or exploring the best that the Andes in Bolivia has to offer.

ADOBE WALLS GO UP TO SUPPORT THE SECOND PART OF THE ROOF

After completing the concrete roof on the first section, the adobe bricks were brought out to build up the external and internal walls on the middle section, the utility room, the second bathroom (photo below) and Ed's bedroom.


Of course, another lintel had to be constructed over the full length windows in Ed's room.





Here you can see Florensio and Mariano building the archway linking the living room to the corridor,

and filling in the gaps between the arched door leading into Ed's room.
