Engine architecture

197 High Ridge road received a 2023 SAIA-KZN Special mention

The Awards jury had this to say :

“After a number of remodellings, the interior of the old building had become entangled and dark, and it was time to rethink the conceptual basis of the house.

The jury was taken by the intervention comprising the north-facing bedroom wing running parallel and proud of the living wing, which in an open spatial sequence terminates in the exterior entertainment area and distant views over Durban.”

Thank you to for the recognition, our client for allowing us space to redefine their home and the contractor for working closely with us to create this home.

This award is dedicated to our late oom, Leon Conradie, who was instrumental in the redesign of this home. Dankie XL

Taking full advantage of the light through the day and opening up to the curb to create an active street edge, the long narrow space is defined by the elongated bar. Acting as a datum, the functions of the café would happen across its length; from sandwich prep, pay point, cake display, coffee machine, water station to takeaway pick up.
