Sky hotel is a budget boutique hotel located in Emali town, Makueni. The client commissioned two x four to design simple yet beautiful budget hotel rooms that would cater to business and budget travellers as well as conferencing rooms. The hotel building envelope was completed 10-years prior and an unusually low budget of 20,000 kes/sqm was set for all pending working including, plumbing, electrical, finishes, furniture, accessories, fixtures and related equipment.

two x four design-built budget boutique interiors that responded to the financial constraints. The simple yet colorful design aimed at offering a sense of comfort. Local artisans were used for several furniture & cabinetry pieces. While reclaimed wood shuttering was used in the furniture pieces, creatively reducing the finishing costs.

two x four also sourced and shopped for numerous finishing items in China enabling the project to be delivered on time and within budget.
