Drawings & surveys in Upington: local notes
Drawing work in Upington includes cellar and packing shed layouts for wine and raisin farms, electrical plans for solar and backup power in extreme heat, and shop layouts in Schröder Street.

Homes and buildings in Upington
Upington is an oasis town on the Orange River, where vineyards, date palms and raisin farms push right up to the edge of the Kalahari. Houses in Rosedale, Oasis and Progress are face-brick or plastered with deep stoeps and shade, while Paballelo and Louisvale have township homes and backyard rooms. Outside town, river-front stands at Kakamas, Keimoes and Kanoneiland call for farmhouses, lodges and packing sheds. Summer heat of 40 degrees is normal, so orientation, thick walls and roof shading shape every drawing. Draughtspersons in Upington travel along the river to measure up.
