HOUSE CARSTENS
Mooikloof, Pretoria, South Africa
Project Description
The original property was built in the early 1990's. The client wanted a complete overhaul of the house to better benefit from the 1Ha holding within the farmstead estate. Entertainment became the core of the layout with large family rooms leading to both open exterior spaces as well as more intimate boma courtyards. A new guest wing frames the new entrance and approach to the house. Raw brickwork and steel pergolas link the built form to the natural landscape surrounds.

HUIS DE WET
The Meadows Pretoria, South Africa
Project Description
The original house was built in the typical Pretoria East Foe-Tuscan style with very separated interior spaces. The client wanted to revamp the entire house to be opened up. Fac brick mass elements were introduced to create more public and more private sections within the newly opened floorplan. All finishing were considered to create clean open spaces with large doors linking the patio and pool areas with the family spaces. Attention was given to ensure intimate separation of spaces to not end up with a hall like living space, but rather a contemporary family home.

HUIS KÖNIG
Harolds Bay, George, South Africa
Project Description
Harolds Bay is a small town situated between the cliffs forming the well-known beach cove. The stand is located high up the sloped with a tremendous view over the ocean and nature reserve. The 16m drop together with municipal height restrictions presented many challenges. A four-story building creates terraced floorplates angled to both open and frame views. The Southern facade consists of large sliding glass doors, tucking into wall pockets to optimise the views, where a courtyard on the Northern side of the building allow warm sunlight to flood the living spaces as well as creating sheltered outdoor spaces, protected from the wind.
