The catalog
What are you
building?
Every plan is drawn by a licensed Ugandan architect, structurally reviewed, and KCCA-ready before it goes live.
Single-storey living
Bungalow
2–5 bedroom single-floor homes sized for East African plots. Easy to phase, easy to extend. The most popular choice for family homes across Uganda.
Multi-floor residences
Storey House
Maximise your plot vertically. Comes with structural drawings, foundation details, staircase design, and all four elevations — everything your contractor needs.
Income-generating property
Rental Units
Purpose-built for maximum occupancy and strong ROI. Separate entrances, individual metering, low-maintenance finishes. Your plot working for you.
Shops, offices & mixed-use
Commercial
Retail units, office blocks, and mixed-use developments designed for Ugandan plot dimensions, local building codes, and KCCA approval requirements.

Pricing
A fraction of what an

"My rental block was approved by KCCA in three weeks."
"I submitted the plans straight to the authority — elevations, sections, site plan, everything was in order. Six units, all rented within a month of completion. The ROI is real."
"I recommend MiHouseDesigns to every client I take on."
