We feel exceptionally privileged to have designed this local dream house for a well-respected builder, who not only wanted to push the bounds of what we could achieve visually, but also in the level of innovation that he could bring into his own project. The house is inspired byboth the farmsteads of the clients native South Africa, fused with the materials and design cues of the local Lovelace style architecture. This home reaches passive house levels of energy efficiency whilst rewarding the occupants with a luxurious and comfortable lifestyle.
