A Shared Vision
This collaboration is built on a simple idea: beauty gains meaning when it serves a purpose.
At Leopard Hills, conservation is the foundation of everything. Each stay supports the protection of the Sabi Sand Reserve. At Sonnenglas, every solar light is crafted under fair trade principles, creating jobs and skills in local communities.
Together, we show how design, sustainability, and respect for nature can meet and create something greater than the sum of their parts.
Beauty with Integrity
By day, the Light Carafe gathers the African sun. By night, it releases a soft, atmospheric glow across the table. Off-grid, simple, and thoughtful, it belongs naturally in this landscape. Beyond its beauty, it tells a story: of design rooted in integrity, honoring both people and the environment.
Conservation at the Heart of the Wild
At Leopard Hills, protecting nature is a daily commitment. Every day is an opportunity to safeguard Africa’s unique wildlife and landscapes. From careful reserve management to waste and resource reduction, and programs against poaching, everything is designed to preserve the land and its inhabitants for the long term.
Special focus is placed on rhinos: through the “Rhino Force” program, Leopard Hills actively fights poaching, helping ensure that future generations can still experience these magnificent animals. Staff are regularly trained to maintain sustainable practices across the lodge.
Through the collaboration of Leopard Hills and Sonnenglas, a meaningful connection is created that goes beyond sustainability. Guests don’t just witness Africa’s wilderness, they become part of a bigger story, where design, craftsmanship, and conservation come together in harmony.
A New Kind of Luxury
Luxury at Leopard Hills is not about excess. It’s about presence. About feeling connected to nature, to people, to place. Every detail, from curated menus to the glow of our solar light, is designed to inspire reflection as much as delight.
Here, the Sonnenglas Light Carafe becomes more than a lamp. It’s a symbol and a reminder that the most meaningful moments are often the simplest.
Light in the Wild
Together, Leopard Hills and Sonnenglas prove that beauty, sustainability, and social impact are inseparable. When they converge, something special emerges: light that embodies care and craft, even in the heart of the wild.
This collaboration is a quiet invitation to consider how every choice, in travel, in design, in life, can honor something beyond ourselves.
