ARRCC has re-envisioned a Cape Town home’s interior layout and exterior composition to include a flowing, open-plan arrangement beneath a newly crafted self-supporting concrete roof. Named Wave Villa, the project is located on the Atlantic Seaboard at the foot of Lion’s Head in South Africa. The home’s existing footprint and foundation were retained, but the envelope was remodelled to connect better to the natural environment.
