Ocean 12

Summary

This project transformed an established guest house on Sunset Beach with the addition of a striking timber-frame penthouse, clad in snaplock metal sheeting and warm timber. Inside, a sleek monochromatic palette contrasts the vibrant coastal setting, while expansive glazing captures panoramic views of the Atlantic, Table Mountain, and Lion’s Head.

The result is a bold yet inviting retreat that offers the owners a serene hideaway above the guesthouse.
