Werf Open Concept House in Cape Winelands, South Africa by Van Der Merwe Miszewski
Located between the road into Franschhoek and the Berg river, this Werf House is the result of a rejuvenation of a 1920′s house and a barn dating from ± the 18th century. The architect, Van Der Merwe Miszewski, was commissioned to re-utilize the barn which is more or less centrally located on the site and is surrounded by several magnificent and ancient Oak trees.
The barn itself was repaired and inhabited to form the heart of the home – being the living, dining and cooking spaces. The long facades are covered with verandahs; one open and planted and the other covered over.
A long pool separates the barn from the vineyards, which together with new paddocks, surround the new house. The owners collaborated closely with the architects on all aspects of the design, and particularly so with regard to internal fit out and furniture.
