Leobo Private Reserve


Leobo Private Reserve is a magical luxury villa located in Limpopo Province, the northernmost province of South Africa.

The property can accommodate up to 26 guests, and 12,000 acres of wilderness are available to visitors.


Leobo Private Reserve:

“Leobo Private Reserve is not like any other game lodge.

Available only on an exclusive use basis the entire 12,000 acres of pristine African wilderness is totally private and yours to enjoy.

The main house is simply stunning. Think James Bond villain’s ultra-cool luxury villa in the African bush…

Designed by award winning architects Silvio Rech and Lesley Carstens, this private house is state of the art and even has a fully automated research-grade observatory tower to view the night sky in world class conditions.

There is a full team of staff to make your stay one of complete luxury and relaxation, including butlers and a talented private chef.

The house will take your breath away, but the real star of the show is the 12,000 acre private game reserve / playground on your doorstep.

The Leobo Private Reserve is fantastically well equipped for fun – there are quad bikes, dirt buggies, horses, mountain bikes, motor bikes, helicopters, clay shooting, fishing and more, all to use at your leisure, with no rules or time constraints.

See the abundance of wild game on horseback, quad or from the comfort of a Land Cruiser, all with the commentary of an expert.

The experienced bush guides can take you animal tracking and show you the wonders of nature on the reserve. Forget timetabled game-drives. Here it’s just you and the bush (with of course the team of experienced staff) so you can do what you like, when you like.”





















The Cresta by Jonathan Segal FAIA


San Diego-based architect Jonathan Segal has designed The Cresta.

This 5,300 square foot contemporary home in San Diego, California, USA, features a concrete construction and a large exterior room.


The Cresta by Jonathan Segal FAIA:

“The Cresta is a 5,300 sq foot single-family residence designed and constructed entirely out of cast in place concrete on a 5,000 sq ft lot in the Lower Hermosa region of La Jolla, CA . The house’s three stories, one below and two above grade, are accented by floor to ceiling glass and large open expanses to the outdoors.

Beginning as solid form the final product still maintains that form instead through roof planes and vertical walls that create both interior and exterior volumes. Due to the unordinary small property in an area with typical properties three to four times the size every square foot was important. The exterior room was a key element in creating a home that otherwise would have felt small feel larger and more private that it is. While this space creates a void the buildings overall form is kept intact. All four corners remain with walls and roof planes to define the original box of the residence.

Adjacent to the front of the structure a reflecting and swimming pool has been integrated into the overall design of the project for thermal cooling and create the perception of floating. Due to the large expanses of operable glass, the thermal mass of the concrete, sun shading and the insulating effect of the pool the 6.5kw solar array on the roof accomplishes supplying nearly 100% of the homes required power.”
