The camp’s design, driven by Great Plains’ Dereck and Beverly Joubert, is an ode to the Okavango’s history and the Bayei people.<\/p>\n
“Sitatunga’s design tells the story of the Okavango, a camp surrounded by water, and one that has had indigenous fishermen in the region for over 200 years,” Dereck Joubert said. Those fishermen designed and used fishing baskets and traps made from reeds in a funnel shape, so I took this reference and designed the rooms as tents hanging inside of giant fishing baskets. The interiors, as a result, draw on a color range that mirrors that of the Okavango, a blend of misty greens and light bleached woods.”<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
