A complete interior refurbishment of a large existing house built in the 1980s. The client decided to transform its rather ordinary interior into a more glamorous, yet contemporary retreat from the stresses of day to day life in Johannesburg. He specifically requested a neutral, muted colour palette that was to flow through the house, with the exception of the children's rooms which were to reflect their own individual taste. The furniture was almost exclusively imported from Italy; the house boasts an indoor swimming pool, a gym and sauna spa area among other luxuries.
