RUSTIC&#38;nbsp;
A family home located in the leafy suburb of Higgovale, overlooking the Cape Town city bowl. The family desired a timeless aesthetic with a strong emphasis on natural finishes. 
The house is terraced with half levels to accommodate the steep slope and the living areas open up to sweeping views of Signal Hill and Lion's Head.

TAMBOURINE
Located on Harrington Street in Cape Town’s East City
precinct, Tambourine occupies a former church parsonage dating to the early
twentieth century. The area forms part of District Six, a neighbourhood defined
by layers of social, cultural and architectural history.

&#38;nbsp;
	

The building itself has continuously adapted over time — from parsonage to creamery, and now a contemporary dining room for small plates and shared tables — reflecting the layered urban condition of its surroundings.

The project is conceived as a layered collaboration rather than a singular architectural gesture. 




	

Architecture, art and light operate in quiet dialogue, allowing multiple authorships to coexist. A ceiling-mounted light sculpture by Ralph Borland anchors the interior, while façade artwork by Marti Macfly and custom light fittings by Greg Marshall contribute to an atmosphere that feels informal, social and familiar.

An outdoor dining area extends the restaurant into the surrounding urban fabric. Here, locally manufactured clay tiles by Klay introduce texture, warmth and tactility, grounding the project in material honesty and local production.


	

Designed to attract a younger, relaxed dining crowd, the interior avoids overt nostalgia. Instead, material restraint, use and time are allowed to define the character of the space, creating an environment that feels as though it has always belonged there.

SEA FARM
This project involved the reconstruction of an iconic family beach house originally designed by SAOTA. Situated within a private nature reserve, the home was tragically destroyed during the 2022 wildfires. Hours Clear was appointed to lead the rebuild, carefully balancing respect for the original architectural intent with the client's evolving lifestyle requirements and a renewed vision for the interiors.

CLARENS PENTHOUSE
Above the City, Beyond the OrdinarySome projects simply get built. Others are truly earned. This penthouse, crowning an apartment block in the shadow of Lion's Head and Signal Hill, belongs firmly to the latter.

&#38;nbsp;


















From
the outset, this was a project that demanded patience, creative resolve, and an
unwillingness to compromise. The result speaks for itself — recognised with the
Scape Apartment Block of the Year award in 2024, and crowned by a penthouse
that represents the very best of what the building set out to achieve.




	
















The
building is immediately recognisable: warm blush render that shifts with the
Cape light, lush planting spilling from every terrace, and a perforated screen
facade that throws dramatic geometric shadows throughout the day.

The
penthouse unfolds as a series of generous, connected spaces where indoors and
outdoors blur effortlessly. Crazy paving flows continuously from interior
living rooms out onto wraparound terraces, with Lion's Head commanding the
horizon and the city stretching away to the sea. A sculptural glass-block
rotunda houses the spiral staircase, filtering light in ways that change with
every hour of the day. 




	
















A
freestanding bathtub positioned before full-height glazing, framed by treetops,
captures the penthouse's quiet philosophy — luxury through connection to
landscape and light, rather than ostentation. Above it all, the rooftop pool —
curved at one end and lush with indigenous planting — feels less like an
amenity and more like a secret garden suspended above the city.

WHITE HOUSEThe building is a sculptural family home isolated from civilization. Located in the mountainous nature reserve that surrounds Plettenberg Bay. Inspired by pure geometry, and classic minimalism, this house breaks free from conventional rules by truly blending the realm between inside and outside.

JOUBERT ROAD

Nestled on the slopes of Signal Hill this residential property was designed to make the most of its ideal perched positioning with uninterrupted views over Cape Town’s magnificent Atlantic Seaboard. The use of natural materials, tones and textures combined with lush landscaping echoes the surrounding mountains and create a tranquil retreat from which to admire the city below. Similarly, the interior design and detailing follow this pursuit for simplicity and serenity. The interior decoration features exquisite hand-crafted pieces and timeless antiques which beautifully consolidates the design ethos of the project.

VILLA JANINE

The existing house had accumulated a series of low-cost additions over the years, and in the process had turned its back on a generous garden and two mature oak trees. Beneath these layers, the original volumes retained an almost elegant proportion. The response was one of reduction rather than addition: the building was resolved into a set of simple, flat-roofed volumes, and its stacked-box character follows directly from that massing rather than from an applied style. The plan was reorganised to face the garden, where a pool and koi pond lie side by side beneath the oaks, crossed by stepping stones and anchored by an outdoor kitchen. Inside, oak joinery, poured-concrete floors and natural textures set the mood of each space. The architecture simply holds that mood, admitting natural light only where it is needed through a few deliberate openings, such as the large circular window in the dining space. Its beauty lies in its restraint.

ILKLEY
Ilkley was the first project completed for the property developer Kluk CGDT. Two overlapping grids were used to accommodate the program on a complicated octagonal-shaped site. Despite it being in the busy heart of the Atlantic Seaboard, the residents have complete privacy from the neighbours. This is due to the solid balustrades that allow views of the ocean while blocking out the surrounding roofscape.
