FIVE OF THE WORLD’S
BEST LUXURY HOTELS
FOR DESIGN LOVERS
Noka Camp, Lapalala Wilderness Reserve,
northern South Africa
Safari lodges tend to plump for one of two
aestheCcs - either the dark wood and brass
Victoriana of a bygone expediConary era, or the
rusCc Cmber-and-fabric look, in the earthy hues
of the savannah. Both can be uNerly enchanCng,
but neither can claim to be at the culng edge
of design. Noka Camp, by contrast, fuses
modern architecture with a bold approach to
interior design. The canvas roof on each cabin is
a nod to tradiCon, but beneath them sits a
glass-fronted cabin packed with clean lines,
contemporary furniture and bold colours that
complement the landscape rather than merely
blending in with it. This is the first property from
Lepogo Lodges, which says it will offset every
guest’s carbon footprint and return every penny
of profit to conservaCon projects in Lapalala
Wilderness Reserve.
