Plettenberg Bay House
The four-bedroom home is set on a ridge overlooking a golf course in an exclusive Plettenberg Bay residential estate. The house is nestled into the hillside, with all rooms overlooking the valley below. A large open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is located on the lower level and roofed over with an indigenous landscaped garden which is overlooked by bedrooms on the upper floor. A wide entrance passage and staircase forms a strong arrival axis offering direct views of the golf course and pool from the entrance lobby. .

Makana House
The holiday home is named after the legendary Xhosa Chief Makana and is located on a private farm overlooking the Bushmans River. The transparent design offers a seamless transition between internal and external living areas. The first floor is raised to enhance the sense of arrival which begins as one approaches the building and culminates with the infinity pool as a focal point that draws the eye towards the view. A palette of natural materials, colours and textures has been carefully selected to form a contemporary African aesthetic.
The project won the “Best Single Residence Award” for the design of Makana House at The African Property Awards 2012.
