History
After designing, building and decorating her own home 42 years ago, friends started asking Linda for advice. Her love of sewing and designing soft furnishings with a difference, led to orders and the beginning of a business. The name Rosalinda came up when Maryna Roos joined her.
The workroom in Silverton expanded rapidly, and her sister Maryna Roux took over the production line. Linda helped clients to choose fabrics, furniture and colour schemes to fit their lifestyles, from her Studio in Bailey’s Muckleneuk, and did the installations.
In 2013 her daughter, Katinka, returned from England , where she had a decor shop for which we exported curtains etc.
Now Rosalinda Ontwerp is based in 1004 Justice Mahomed Street in Pretoria, where there is a wonderful Decor Shop that include a library room full of textiles and wall paper samples.
You are welcome to shop and drink tea anytime between 08:00 – 16:30 Monday to Friday.
Saturday 08:00 -13:00.
Best to book an appointment if you need any advice on curtains, upholstery, or interior design with one of our designers. We would love to spend time with you to understand your requirements.

Lelanie van Aardt
I have obtained a degree in Interior Architecture from the University of Pretoria. I have 4 years of experience in the interior design industry. I have 3 years of experience in working with imported kitchens and bathrooms.
Interior Design is more than just making a space look great, it is about how a space makes you feel. The interior of your home plays a big role in your mental wellbeing. I find that the layout of an interior space is more important than the way it looks. If a space is only visually appealing but does not function properly, it is a wasted opportunity.
I am passionate about the following design principles: Minimalistic, quality over quantity, nature inspired, neutral colour palette with pops of colour, the use of contrasting elements or colours. With these design principles in mind, I am able to implement my clients needs and wants into something beautiful.
Helene Burke
I have a practical yet detailed approach to projects, favoring Scandinavian design with a focus on simplicity and functionality. Natural elements like wood and linen are my go-to choices. As the head of product development at Rosalinda Ontwerp, I’m passionate about old furniture for a sustainable touch.
I love textiles and texture. My favorite colours—dusty pink, lime green, and turquoise—have emotional ties to memories and experiences. I believe décor should be both aesthetically pleasing and practical.
