Dassen Island Drive, Yzerfontein

The stark contrast of white and blue epitomises the ‘gees’ of the west coast, which is reinterpreted in this contemporary beach house, proudly stationed on a dune, overlooking the raw Atlantic seas. Natural light, courtyard living and refuge from prevailing southerly winds, were key drivers in this coastal retreat. ‘Driftwood’ detailing to shutters, pergolas and screens, deal with the harsh west coast sun and wind.
