Open Invitation
Fresnaye
A disjointed 30’s house becomes an entertainer's haven.
‘I love the honesty of the junction between floor and wall and window and roof... Strip it down to essentials.’ — ML

A Grand Plan
Camps Bay
An heirloom property gets a thoroughly modern makeover.
‘As the architect, I’m the seed, germinator and translator, with an extremely cohesive and experienced team who deliver a great product and excellent service. This team interaction is one of my favourite aspects of the creative process. It takes years of working together to build these relationships.’ — ML

Seeing the Light
Koringberg
A dilapidated rural farmhouse is lovingly overhauled.
‘I am obsessed with the crafting of a building by hand. For instance, I’m passionate about seeing the texture of bricks that have been time-consumingly laid. In a 21st Century push-button world, that is beautiful.’ — ML
