4. INTERIOR
PORTFOLIO:
BUILT BY PETER WESSELS & ASSOCIATES
An old residence decorated with timber needed renovation. The owners loves music, sundowners and conversation. They wanted a dark south-
facing study opened up to allow a bar counter into the living room. The clients’ love of timber called for a very detailed design including all the
amenities of a functioning bar.

5. A hair salon inspired by an asymmetrical hair style called for ten individual units placed in a semi circle seating arrangement .The salon is on a corner
shop with the challenge of no t enough walling. The placement of the cutting stations in the middle contributed to client being surrounded and not
exposed to all who walked by. The planning allows the client the feeling of individuality and not being seated into a line as is normally the case. The
floor pattern is a piece of hair cutting which is reflected in the ceiling. The salon’s main aim is for the client to feel good and that the experience of
cutting hair is inspired by their inner beauty and them being surrounded by style and class which is the function of the shop fitting.

The building is surrounded by old railroad brick houses the intention is to be sensitive to them by incorporating their overall shapes to the
cottage and their textures to the buildings walls. On plan a rectangle and a square are overlapped at an angle to create the kitchen on the
south side and a bay window on the north. The interior is open plan with a cool pleasant ambiance created by three stained glass windows
and a ceiling height of four to five meters

14. The development is influenced by the surrounding suburbs Art Deco buildings. A three building consisting of ten unit apartments needed to
have the appearance of individuality hence the angled shapes and separated rooms.
The small spaces are relieved by open plan space and small balconies.

16. The very detailed concrete structure is not evident in the photos and needs to be appreciated on site. The owner/builder built a house for
sale with the highest standards and regard for construction, it was truly inspirational to be involved with this building.

17. A residence of design inspiration from an open minded client who’s only requirement was no passages with open flowing multi functional
spaces and tall facades allowing for the only view within a city: the sky! A beautiful home.

18. The screen is designed to protect the pedestrian from construction work and is inspired by a kind of a cacoon which is the screen and the
building as the pupa transforming into a new building
