Fit, Form and Function is the foundation of product development and the new Limesite Breeze Block ticks all the boxes. The humble breeze block has come a long way since the 1920's and recently we have seen an uptake in the use of this block for decorative purposes but let's not forget its highly beneficial functional side.
Zephyr meaning "a gentle breeze" is quite fitting to the function this block will bring to a space. Breeze blocks provide a shield from harsh winds, creating shade from the sun and of course is ideal as a privacy screen indoor and outdoor.
Our Zephyr Block is the upgraded version to the standard block. The designer form creates a sleek block with a window that can receive various inserts. These inserts can be made from other materials like, glass, copper, brass, basket weaves, wire and more. The perfect collaboration product for us to involve other local designer makers and crafters. These elements will be added to the master block.
The blocks are sold by square meter and the inserts are sold individually and can be selected in either Copper, Brass, Stainless Steel, rusted steel, glass and the possibilities for future collaborations with other craftsmen remains open.
As part of the launch of the Zephyr product Wolkberg Collaborated with Veld Architecture and Down to the Wire, a non-profit organisation dedicated to conserving wildlife, and they create beautiful pieces of wire products from snares used to trap animals by poachers.
