This magnificent project was the ultimate opportunity for us to assist our
client Dr. C Hoole in taking the project from the design stages until
handing her the key.Our design and construction synergy was born.The boundaries between the design disciplines were purposefully eroded
to encourage more interaction and yielded great results. The space and
the use of space morphed towards each other instantly when the two
disciplines interacted and the final product reflected it. We designed a
place where one can feel right at home. The horizontal and vertical
elements are very stimulating on ones eyes. As you enter the front door
you will experience openness, and will be able to orientate yourself
immediately. For the client it was a dream come true, as the designers
and contractor we were able to assist the client with the ultimate ideas,products, quality and practical implimentation.

to the sun.
