Credentials
Martin Prinsloo
Martin Prinsloo, the founder of PrinsARCH Architectural Design Studio, has been fascinated by architectural design since he can remember. As a child, his school books were always full of sketches, plans and drawings of houses and buildings. When he was eight years old he began building miniature houses using bricks he produced by compressing mud in matchboxes that he used as a brickmould. For the remainder of his primary schooling, young Martin embarked on personal engineering projects that included the design and construction of mini dams and bridges.
By the time he left high school, it was down to a tough choice between becoming a civil engineer or an architect. Then, while on a stroll through the historic Greenmarket Square in Cape Town, he became inspired by the magnificent architecture of The Old Town House and decided to become an architect.
Martin completed his studies at Cape Technikon and qualified as an architectural technologist in 1992. After doing his practical at a top South African architectural firm in Cape Town, he spent time in the building materials industry to gain knowledge in all aspects of his chosen field.
It was on a business trip to Gansbaai that Martin saw a need for his architectural services and he decided to relocate and open an architectural firm.
“As an architect, you design for the present, with an awareness of the past, for a future that is essentially unknown.”
