Outeniqua View

Project Type: Residential
Project Area: Garden Route
Project Size: 250 m2

Positioned within a coastal estate, this residence offers a quiet departure from its neighbours, visually distinct yet contextually aligned. The design responds to both ocean and mountain views, with large windows and glass doors framing the Outeniqua range and the distant ocean.

While the estate’s architectural language is consistent, this home introduces subtle shifts in proportion and spatial rhythm to establish its own identity. Internally, the layout prioritizes solar orientation, with north-facing bedrooms benefitting from passive heat gain and natural light.

Though the building envelope features relatively modest overhangs, the design compensates through extended canopies, balconies, and covered patios that provide effective solar control and seasonal rain protection.
