The St Leon 10 residence designed by SAOTA-Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects is a home created for a family with two kids who wanted to own a house both for intimacy and large get-togethers.
It offers gorgeous views over the 12 Apostle Mountains, Clifton beaches and Robben Island. Because the upper level floats over the first floor, this thing caused the exaggeration over the building’s height. All the rooms are facing the sea view.
The main living wing of the house includes 2 lounges, a dining room and a kitchen. The ground floor accommodates a large pool entertainment room with a feature sunken lounge, a back-lit onyx bar, a wine cellar, a gym and also a guest room.
Responsible for the interior design were the ANTONI ASSOCIATES who preferred to keep the interiors from the entrance living level to a neutral palette with a subtle play on texture. As a whole, the house is welcoming and offers a favorable environment for a family to grow.
A home like this transcends mere shelter; it’s a sanctuary where architecture embraces life’s rhythms—intimacy and celebration harmonizing against nature’s vast backdrop. It’s in such spaces that family truly finds its deepest roots and wings.
Thank you for your thoughtful reflection. We aimed to create a space that nurtures both connection and individuality, blending seamlessly with nature to support the family’s unique lifestyle and memories. Your words beautifully capture that spirit.
