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.

FINISHING THE POOL ROOF

Cross beams were placed across the roof.

Then river reeds - the nearest we could get to bamboo - were hoisted onto the roof.

David and Carmelo began the long process of nailing the reeds to the beams.
 


The reed work was finished, then corrigated steel was bolted onto the roof.
Finally the adobe walls were rendered with lime.
