Private Residence — Constantia

LOCATION Constantia

CATEGORY Architecture

Set within the tree-lined Constantia valley, this new residence at Hohenhort Avenue takes its cue from place and memory. Thick stone walls, deep arched openings, exposed timber beams give the house a grounded gravitas and draws some inspiration from traditional Spanish stable architecture. Spaces unfold slowly, shaped by filtered light, generous thresholds and long axial views through the plan. The architecture favours weight, texture and restraint, allowing craft and material honesty to quietly anchor the home within its historic setting.
