Biru is an architecture and design studio based in Cape Town, South Africa which balances playful experimentation with technical prowess.
Formed in 2019 by Casper Lundie and Yvonne Brecher, Biru is a refinement of their experience in private, public and heritage architecture. Having overseen both small and urban scale projects, the pair formed Biru with the desire to widen the scope and explore the possibilities of their discipline.
Biru’s founders have a fondness for modernism, but favours harmony over hard edges, weaving the past into the contemporary by respecting the diverse aspirations and intricate living scenarios of their clients. Our design philosophy is simple; to create honest and meaningful spaces.
