We are back with construction updates! We are back in the Czech Republic from Kashitu, but we are still finalizing the presentation of the progress of the works that took place on the construction site.
Time is running out and we all have to work hard until the last days. We still have finishing touches to do and our hands are working on all fronts. And where exactly are we pressed for time? The installations in the family house need to be finished, the water involves erecting and connecting the water tower, the sewer involves...

The construction process is in full swing and the outlines of the multifunctional house are slowly but surely taking shape. The team has started by laying out the foundations and is gradually working on the base structure.
A year later, we are back on site and already working full speed on the construction of the next building. The first members of the team arrived in Zambia a few days ago, acclimatised and got straight down to business.
We're changing the logo and not only that, we're changing the logo into a story! Can bricks be stylish and do they even have a deeper meaning? They can! And they do!
