DESIGN PROCESS
Situated in the southern suburbs of Boksburg near the N17 highway, this estate boasts large open stands and equally large homes. Dr and Mrs Loubser wanted a modern open plan family home that made use of the north western view and used the northern orientation to heat and light all the homes in the home. This is reflected in the unique shape of the plan as the entertainment and bedroom areas are perfectly oriented to the north while the rest of the house follows the stand boundaries exposing the view to the north-west. This home has 4 bedrooms, a study, two TV lounges, entertainment area, dining room and bar all opening onto a central patio which can be closed off with sliding stacking doors to control the internal temperature of the home.
