Architecture Design of House Sealion
Description About The Project
House Sealion, designed by Greg Wright Architects, is an exceptional residence nestled at the base of a mountain along Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard. Conceived as an entertainment-focused home, the design cleverly integrates the stunning natural elements of both the ocean and the mountain into the living experience. Given the challenge of optimizing privacy while maximizing height, the solution was to vertically stack the structure, creating separate volumes divided by serene courtyard spaces. These courtyards enhance the horizontal spatial relationships, ensuring an intimate connection between the indoor and outdoor areas.
A central design feature is the seamless circulation through the home’s two primary volumes, creating a continuous dialogue between the mountain behind and the ocean in front. The use of double-height spaces at the entrance and living areas amplifies the visual impact of the natural surroundings. The living and dining rooms, with sliding doors that disappear into cavity walls, open up entirely to the pool and BBQ terraces, allowing for an effortless indoor-outdoor flow.
The second-floor master bedroom offers a private terrace with breathtaking views of both the rugged mountain backdrop and the sweeping ocean below. Street-facing concrete walls and strategically placed windows provide security and privacy, while laser-cut screens add a sophisticated aesthetic to the façade. Inside, the minimalist finishes create a serene atmosphere, contrasted by bold and vibrant décor. Carefully layered lighting throughout the home adds depth and evokes complementary moods, perfect for both quiet relaxation and lively entertaining.
House Sealion is not just a residence; it is a sanctuary that celebrates the unique beauty of its location while providing an exceptional space for hosting and sharing with others.
