Welcome to Mud Designs

Fibre Thatch personnel have been involved in thatch structures in Western Australia since the early 1980's.

Bali, or Indonesian thatch, was initially used, but discontinued. It was found to be quite unsuitable for most outdoor areas due to the strong prevailing winds resulting in damage and a reduced lifespan.

In 1991, through the landscape company Proscape, and later Sunshader W.A., Cape Reed Thatch from South Africa was used with great success. Many of the photographs located on this webpage are produced by these original suppliers of thatch in this state.

Cape Reed Thatch is available in panels which can be clipped onto existing structures (if suitably designed), or provided in kit form from small umbrellas to large round, oval, square, or rectangular structures (especially using soft corners).
