Set on a picturesque stand with established trees on a residential estate North of Johannesburg, this contemporary home makes use of magnificent views throughout the open plan living, kitchen and patio spaces which flow as one. This as a way of extending the living space to the exterior. A decision was made to retain as many trees as possible, resulting is a series of built forms stepped around the trees, linked by a central, circulation ‘spine’.
