House O’Connor

Meyersdal, Johannesburg, Gauteng
2006

This single storey house design is situated on the border of a nature reserve. The living area and main bedroom open up towards the open veld while the children’s bedrooms and services are lined up towards the back and side of the site.

Aesthetically, it is a mixture of brick plastered walls, and a laminated timber open rafter roof structure. This extends past the living area to form the covered stoep adjacent to the lap pool from which one can enjoy a luxurious view of the open nature reserve. This house design ranks with some of the finest architectural designs in South Africa
