This week at Design Scape Architects, we’ll take you through the design process of a small house on a farm, in the Greyton area, under the Riviersonderend Mountains. The new house is to replace an existing log house that burnt down in a recent fire. Only the pool survived. The site is level with an oak tree, with mountains to the North, a berm to the West and a river to the East.
