{Interiors} Melkbos Home

Being an Interior Designer myself,  I enjoy photographing a beautiful and well balanced Interior space filled with fabrics, textures, furniture, detail and colours that compliment the architecture and style of the house.

It was my privilege to photograph this lovely home in Melkbosstrand just outside of Cape Town. Owners Andre and Wilma van den Berg, created a space that complement their lifestyle and personalities. It’s a stylish modern home with plenty of room to enjoy quiet or sociable moments.

They enjoy the calm serenity of living on the South African coast. They combined those elements with a subtle Mediterranean flair and added a personal touch with the east Asian influences from living between South Africa, Thailand and Vietnam. The Modern simple architecture with its white exposed trusses and concrete is the perfect “shell” for the hues of deep blues.

Wilma decorated this house herself, from the furniture, soft furnishings, through to the painted walls and trusses. The best of course, is the effect of her very creative hand transforming her dark furniture into beautiful light painted pieces. It truly binds everything together.

May you enjoy many more memorable moments in this beautiful place called HOME
