Next to a green strip, this home finds its place in the Fly Fishing estate in Pretoria. The layout of the home enables a north living area that also opens to the southern green strip. The home is focused around the entertainment area and kitchen
Vertical volumes intersect with horizontal slabs at various levels to link the functional volumes of the home to the erf. Textured brick, sliding screens and negative volumes allow some connection of the garden and street scape to extend into the house.
