KT Interior is a collective of creatives and collaborators dedicated to shaping expressive residential, hospitality, and commercial spaces across South Africa and beyond. Rooted in storytelling and refined through art, every project reflects a deep respect for texture, craft, and colour, transforming interiors into spaces that are both functional and soulful.
A shining example of this philosophy is KT Interior’s collaboration with Time + Tide on Chongwe House, nestled in Zambia’s Lower Zambezi National Park. Inspired by the sinuous flow of the Chongwe River, the design embraces organic curves, earthy tones, and natural rhythms that echo the surrounding wilderness. The result is a sculptural sanctuary where every detail honours the landscape and its materials.
At Chongwe House, bespoke furniture, lighting, and artistic elements are carefully crafted to create spaces that feel grounded, luxurious, and intimately connected to nature. Open-air lounges invite guests to slow down, reflect, and immerse themselves in the sights, sounds, and scents of the bush. Every interior element – from cotton and linen fabrics to carved wood and river stone – has been thoughtfully chosen to balance comfort with elegance.
The studio’s approach demonstrates that every detail matters and every space tells a story. Chongwe House exemplifies KT Interior’s belief that design should be expressive, tactile, and respectful of the natural environment. Through this union of art, craft, and sustainability, the lodge becomes not only a retreat but a deeply meaningful experience, offering visitors a harmonious blend of nature and luxury.
KT Interior continues to push the boundaries of design across Africa and beyond, proving that spaces shaped with intention and creativity can foster connection, tranquillity, and timeless beauty.
