Designed by Nico Van Der Meulen Architects. This modern villa has a design inspired by nature surrounding environtment in MooiKloof Heights, Pretoria, South Africa. The villa is a combination of glass, concrete and steel to create a luxurious residence with 4 bedrooms.
From the architects: The architectural design communicates and reinforces the concept, as can be seen in the selection of materials used and the way the internal spaces relate to the outdoors. The choice of materials and finishes was limited to natural materials and earthy colours. Initially the site revealed itself as a mound of quartzite rock which was excavated and hand cut for the gabion landscape walls and the stone cladding used throughout the house. The striking square and rectangular rusted steel boxes are strategically positioned while the stone-clad walls extend the house into the landscape, creating integration between building and site.
