Alive Architects & Victor Projects

This house design was executed as a composite block design that allows for maximum light and ventilation of approximately 520m², making full use of the inside-outside styled living that we are all used to in South Africa. The use of steel beams has been a main drive in the aesthetic structure of the facades along with huge panes of glazing.
