Makao Kwetu began with a bold vision — to transform desolate spaces into meaningful, habitable places. What started as a mission to build sustainable homes has evolved into a multi-disciplinary design and build firm shaping how people live, experience, and belong.

Our mission is to create eco-friendly spaces that inspire and empower communities. Every structure we raise and every environment we shape is rooted in sustainability and driven by purpose. From Architecture and Interior Design to full-scale Project Management, we design spaces that are not only beautiful, but deeply impactful.

In 2025, we proudly merged with Sustainable Architecture, a renowned hospitality design firm with over 20 years of experience in creating immersive, guest-centered spaces across Africa. This merger amplifies our collective expertise in Hospitality Operations, enabling us to design and manage spaces that bring soul to hospitality, from boutique lodges to vibrant food and cultural destinations.

Our innovative Houses to Go product continues to redefine modular living offering fast, flexible, and sustainable housing that adapts to modern needs.

At Makao Kwetu, we are more than builders. We are visionaries, designers, and doers. Our team — now enriched by decades of hospitality design excellence — works collaboratively to turn bold ideas into livable realities that uplift people and places alike.

Welcome to Makao Kwetu!
