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.

TERRACE WALLS

It's a little scary standing on the enormous expanse of roof spanning two thirds of the house, so Ed props himself against the 5 metre column.

You can just make Ed out standing on the far side of the roof.


On the right is a photo showing the two levels of the roof. We will divide the terrace into two parts to make it a more intimate space.




Florensio builds the wall on the roof above June's bedroom. This part will be 1.50 metres to shield against the prevailing wind. On the right is a view from down the hill showing the back of the house.
