An innovative solid-wood house in an architect’s Cape Town hillside garden was designed as much as a guest cottage as an experiment in a new kind of fast, sustainable building.
This bold, angular alteration in Cape Town is a masterclass in the richness, warmth and sensuality of a dark palette.
The total transformation of this urban townhouse has taken it from conventional to contemporary. It’s now light, bright and the perfect example of how to do minimalism with warmth.
Through careful restoration, a heritage home in Cape Town is re-imagined as a high-glam escape from the bustle of urban living.
An apartment perched between mountain and sea plays with geometry, light and textures, conceiving a striking space.
