This private residence is a 3-bedroom house constructed within the Seaton estate located within the larger Zululami luxury coastal estate. The home was designed to create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living and enables residents to enjoy the temperate climate of the Dolphin Coast throughout the year. Large windows frame views of the ocean or the adjacent indigenous forest, while louvers provide shade for effective solar control, and a deck further extends the size of the patios. The gable ends are accentuated with a plastered frame and a deep recess, painted a darker charcoal colour. This detail hides the downpipes and creates a neat, clean edge for the roof. The typology of the house draws inspiration from the vernacular building style of the sugar cane farmsteads in the area, which is re-interpreted in a contemporary manner while creating a homely atmosphere where residents can enjoy quality time with family and friends.
