The Design CRU | Curated Travel, Iconic Stays, and Safari Experiences

A channel dedicated to extraordinary lodging, immersive room tours, and the kind of travel that lingers in the soul. From remote safari camps and conservation-driven lodges to standout design stays around the world, we highlight experiences that are bold, beautiful, and deeply intentional.

Founded and hosted by Brad Crockett — designer, African travel specialist, and longtime curator of ultra-personalized journeys — The Design CRU is built on years of deep, on-the-ground knowledge. Brad was featured in Departures as a trusted Africa expert and earned National Geographic’s Best Tour of the World for a flying bike safari in Namibia.

This is where design-forward travel meets deep storytelling — all with a focus on meaningful experiences and wild, remarkable places.
