House Rebelo

Parktown North, Johannesburg
2018

This project is a renovation done to an existing thatch roof house. The roof will be removed and a new steel roof will be built in its place although slightly higher in order to allow for perimeter natural lighting throughout the day.

The living area and bedrooms form an L shape around the entertainment area and they open up fully onto the sunken lap pool on the deck.

Aesthetically, the house will be an all-white beach feel design that will represent the freshness desired by its owners. The new steel roofs will “float” almost as hovering dishes over the different areas identifying the functions below.
