About Chai Chee Safari

Chai Chee Safari is led by founder Di Kai, whose background in art, design and botany shapes every build. Each project is designed and built in-house by our small studio team — we don't outsource the craft.

We build the way nature works: balanced, considered, and made to live for years, not weeks. Smart automation handles the hard parts so you can enjoy nature without the chore of constant maintenance.
