16 Roella Road, Rooi Els

Proof yet again that great and well design, constructed home’s never ages, the simplicity of this dazzling concrete glass and steel architectural home in Rooi Els hawk’s back to the Forties yet is utterly contemporary. The long, low, streamline structure is remarkable in it’s seamless blurring of the boundaries between the indoors and outdoors. The home touches the earth lightly and looking at how it is suspended in its setting, it’s obvious how much respect the structure has for the surrounded area.
