“South African Cape Dutch heritage has always inspired me and, in a way, these beautiful, old Latin books reminded<br />

me of its aesthetic. The concept is taking inspiration from the Armoire Cabinet and redesigning it within the David<br />

Krynauw Joburg Method. The walnut timber adds a classic touch to the floating bookcase.”<br />

Oukas is a collaboration between award-winning furniture designer, David Krynauw, Thorold’s Africana & Law<br />

Booksellers, and The Rare Library. The concept originated during a conversation between Merwelene van der Merwe<br />

and Juanita Kotzé, ‘The Rare Librarian’.<br />

The two visual creatives explored the potential of 31 vellum-bound collector’s books about law dated between 1590<br />

and 1740. Inspired by their vision, David Krynauw came on board and true to his Cape Dutch design influence, he<br />

drafted and designed an assembly place for the rare books.<br />

The result is Die Oukas.<br />
