Sleek and Glamorous Beach House in South Africa

This luxurious seaside house on Bantry Bay in Cape Town, South Africa comes to us from Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects (SAOTA).

Unlike many beach houses or coastal houses, there is no bringing nature in, in this house.

On the contrary.

Refined and chic, its sophisticated glossy interiors are the antithesis of the coastal scrub outside.

But ‘interior’ is a relative term.

Sliding floor-to-ceiling glass walls completely open each of three floors creating an open air living space.

Its terraces cantilever out over the romantic outdoor rooms into the gigantic view beyond.

The entrance has a subtle zen-like charm with a cool and sophisticated grey stone facade.

This leads directly into the stunning view.

Using only shiny surfaces; glass and marble, SAOTA gives this family home a sophistication that is unusual in a seaside house.

The result, a family home that is perfect for entertaining – an instant resort.
