Pursuit

Of one simple

Desire—

Acre is a female led, multi-disciplinary studio of interior designers and architects led by Lianel de Jongh and Lindy Swart. Established in late 2019, the studio creates furniture and interiors with a single-minded vision – Mood, Made. The studio’s team of listeners, dreamers and creators believes that great design helps encapsulate each individual’s sensibilities, whether it’s designing a humble side-table or bringing new life to a full-scale commercial project.

Mood,

Made.

We design products that encapsulate a feeling – that transform familiar surroundings, whether modern or traditional, into those that inspire. All our products are lovingly designed and meticulously crafted whether you want to create intrigue, comfort or simply indulge.
Design that evokes a sense of self and wellbeing, while supporting the craftspeople who bring it to life.
Reflect yourself
From the bedroom to the boardroom and everywhere in between, we believe that design creates the means for people to align their environments to their sense of self. We strive to help people create their home or work spaces, in a manner that reflects their individuality and taste.
Long-term place-making partner
We understand the power of design to transform someone’s daily life. We endeavour to be our customers’ long-term partners in their place-making journey, no matter what stage they may find themselves in their lives.
Dedicated to craftsmanship
All our products are made-to-order and handmade in South Africa. We are committed to supporting local production and to maintaining a sustainable relationship with the people who bring our designs to life.
