YEAR
2012
The brief was
to create a home for an extended Johannesburg family. Situated in Houghton on a
gentle slope, the site is surrounded by trees and has views from the upper
levels.
 
The site was split
into two separate sites organised around a common entrance and driveway providing
access to both houses. The houses have a U-shaped configuration organised
around an internal courtyard and allows access to all of the living spaces and
the swimming pool. A perforated wall separates the public forecourt from the
private spaces.
 
Internally
the spaces pivot around a central volume with a ribbon like spiral stair. The
living spaces, kitchen and private garden are to the north, while the games room,
pool and gym are to the west. All of these spaces connect to the courtyard
which in turn connects back to the main house and its living spaces.
 
Because of the
west facing façade, a set of large shutters, which drop below the level of the
first floor slab, provide shade and protection from the setting sun. Care was
also taken in selecting performance-glass that would minimise the impact of
direct sun. The bedrooms and study are on the upper level. The passage to the
children’s bedroom runs along the perforated wall that separates the building
from the driveway.
 
ANTONI
ASSOCIATES were appointed to create a contemporary interior which needed to reflect
their family lifestyle. The décor and furniture selected are modern and have
strong lines to complement the linear architecture. A number of bespoke
furniture pieces were designed by OKHA Interiors. Neutral palettes with accent
colours have been used throughout. Strong graphic rugs add drama and
texture to the rooms which offset against the solid architectural surfaces. Curated
art by South African artists amongst others Lyndi Sales and Philip Barlow have
been placed throughout the house.
