About Us

About Umlungu
I started Umlungu Design from my kitchen in 2023, as a hobbyist carpenter, quickly outgrown in a matter of weeks as gifts for family and friends turned into orders of tables and other large items started filtering in.
Quickly needing more real estate I found a small workshop in Paarden Eiland where Umlungu started taking shape and developed into what it is today.
I design and hand make all of our products - tailoring to my clients needs. I like to involve my clients as much as possible during the design, manufacturing and finishing stages.
No project is too big or small for Umlungu.

A 70s Update
Cabinets had begun to rot, laminates and veneers started to peel off. The floor had faded and de-laminated in places and the tiles were clearly not from this century.
