Our Name
/skɛts/
"Skets (selfstandige naamwoord): 'n vlugtige voorstelling of konsep."
The name SKETS is inspired by the Afrikaans word for a drawing—rooted in the Greek term schedios, meaning "freehand drawing." Just like a skets captures the first spark of an idea, it marks the beginning of every architectural journey. At SKETS, a team of Somerset West architects and draughtspersons transform these early sketches into fully realised spaces. Every line drawn is the foundation of an architectural solution—whether residential, commercial, or industrial. More than just a rough draft, a skets reflects your vision and becomes the blueprint of what’s to come. Trust SKETS, your local experts in Somerset West, to shape inspired concepts into architectural reality.
