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.

STARTING THE KITCHEN

Whilst our workers were occupied with laying foundations on the living room floor we designed the layout for the kitchen area.
 
An area along the wall between the main door and the start of the tall columns was dug out and also the foundation for the island.

Plywood forms were made to pour concrete bases for the kitchen units.

Reinforcing steel was wired together to strengthen the concrete for the island base.

Then the black tinted concrete was poured into the forms.

When the bases were dry we began building up the supporting walls that would support the concrete counter tops. 

Soon the walls were in place, ready for the next stage.
