House Eccleston
Johannesburg, South Africa
Project Featured on Jun 16, 2014
The client’s fondness of mid-20th century modernism inspired the overall design of this open- plan glass and concrete house, which also features a music room and dance studio. Due to the slope of the stand, a large basement was designed on the lower side of the property, creating a stepped effect on the stand.
A large reflective Koi pond flows over a retaining wall next to the driveway, with an illuminated glass staircase behind a two-story curtain wall in the background.
The elevator shaft forms a strong vertical element finished in rust behind the water feature, all of this framed by a cantilevered concrete beam. The staircase behind the Koi pond is double glass construction complete with lights between the two layers of glass.
The entrance features a frameless glass pivot door that leads into a double volume entrance hall and formal lounge, with views across the lounge and pool into the garden beyond. A bridge suspended by steel cables connected to two lattice trusses in the roof spans across this space.
The family room, breakfast room and kitchen are enclosed with frameless glass folding doors, making it possible to open it completely to the lanai, pool and outdoor bar. A large oak tree was protected during the construction and is a feature in both the kitchen and the main bathroom.
The team from M Square Lifestyle Design echoed the exterior wall of rusted steel internally by using similar colors of orange and purple. A false wall was designed in the lounge to contain the fireplace and recessed, illuminated niches.
M Square Lifestyle Necessities opted for furniture by luxury brands: Molteni & C, Horm, Fantoni, Fontana Arte, Tom Dixon and Foscarini.
