Modern magnificence

By Trisha Harinath, Project Consultant Monique Lombard, Photography Karl Rogers

Using superior quality materials, state of the art appliances, fashionable fabrics and a variety of stylish decor elements, this home emits striking visual spaces that are timeless in their appeal.

Throughout the home are impressive and beautiful artworks and sculptures that lend themselves to the contemporary ambience. Splashes of colour that come from feature walls and soft furnishings enhance the modern elegance. The home features magnificent living spaces that flow out onto the outside entertainment patio, an inside entertainment room, a contemporary styled bar, bedrooms that have been designed to bring out a relaxing ambience, a home gym and a jetted spa bath.

Architecturally speaking, the abode is testimony to modern designs. The abundance of glass that has been used throughout not only adds to its modern theme but also ensures that the interior spaces are bathed in natural light. The exterior has been treated with the same attention to detail as the interior of the home. Once again, the owners opted for hardscaping features that include contemporary water features and a pergola. Together with the variety of plants, the landscaped areas are charming and inviting in character.

This home, in all its splendour, is a great example of how one can ensure that modern ideas can be translated into striking and comfortable spaces that ensure a luxurious and well balanced lifestyle.
