Introducing the

Simbah Collection

Uniqwa Collections x Lauren Eloise

Charl van Heerden

The Simbah Collection, a harmonious collaboration between Uniqwa Collections and Lauren Eloise, draws inspiration from Uniqwa’s Head Designer Charl van Heerden’s visionary Hamali Block designs. This extraordinary outdoor furniture collection redefines the concept of outdoor living.

Infused with the essence of Charl van Heerden’s design philosophy, which draws inspiration from the beauty of handmade pieces, natural materials, and ethnic cultures, the Simbah collection combines modern style with the distinct character of reclaimed teak. Charl’s deep connection to the tribal spiritual community and his focus on modern requirements are evident in these designs, which tell stories through their intricate textures and elements influenced by nature and culture. This design philosophy is an instinctive part of Charl’s being.

The Simbah collection showcases solid, chunky square legs that balance sleek minimalism and timeless elegance. With this fusion of contemporary design, impeccable craftsmanship, and textured details, Simbah presents a timeless collection that infuses sophistication, warmth, and character into any outdoor living area.

Lauren Eloise

Lauren Eloise is a passionate interior designer and stylist who discovered her love for creating beautiful spaces when she documented her first home build, The Coastal Barn Dream, which instantly captured the hearts of many and set a suburb record when it went to auction. 

The Coastal Barn Dream became a household name and a sought-after location for luxury brand photoshoots. Uniqwa Collections was fortunate to be the first to shoot in Lauren’s breathtaking new build. 

Lauren continues to craft exquisite spaces and is on to her second project, combining her keen eye for detail with functional design. Lauren’s unique blend of coastal resort aesthetics and country elements has redefined family-friendly living. Proving that a white-on-white resort-style home is the perfect family haven, a crucial aspect for Lauren as a mother of five.

Inspired by the Hamali Block Dining Table, a key piece in Lauren’s Coastal Barn outdoor design, Lauren proposed a collaboration. The result is Simbah, a dream collaboration designed in harmony with Uniqwa Collections.
