DESIGNER

“Design and the highest-quality results are central to my work,” says Cape Town-based architect and furniture designer Pieter Steenberg. Pieter strives for superior results, integrity, quality and excellence above all else – conformity and mediocrity are not an option. According to Pieter, “Design is a journey. It’s a journey meant to add value to the spaces I work with and enhance the lives and lifestyles of the families and clients I design for.” Pieter’s attention to detail, his personal investment and his passion for design are visible in all his projects.

INLINE SPACES

Designing a range of furniture for the KUNI brand and Gys Potgieter’s treasure trove of large scale well-aged timber, catapulted my inspiration into traditional carpentry methods of mortise and tenon interfaces, where metal components were not the glue that joined pieces of wood together. A design preference for clean lines and suspended shapes creates a new challenge when faced with heavy pieces of timber, but the image of an aeroplane wing glides into the design, supported by a rudder like leg and components that slides into position as the timber interlocks.

Inline Spaces is an architectural design consultancy that embraces the challenge and individual approach of every project. I started to hone my skill in 1990 as a residential architect with the emphasis on creating spaces conducive to specific lifestyles. My passion for detail design resulted in my diversifying into industrial and furniture design, which forms a substantial part of my discipline and skill.
