Perched on the cliff edges in Knysna, South Africa is a home of stone and timber. Tactile, rugged yet luxurious, perfectly oriented to the views and oh the views.  Magnificent site matched by magnificent home. Cove 6 by SAOTA – Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects.

Here’s our second home from the July issue of Inside Out. I’ll let managing editor Lee Tran Lam fill us in.

Don’t forget Aussie readers can pick up their copy of the latest issue of Inside Out on Thursday and overseas readers can find it on Zinio, Google Play and the Apple Newsstand.

You will all know by now that Inside Out is one of our favourite magazines. Packed full of inspiring homes and design ideas. What could be better? Well twice as many issues! Inside Out is now published monthly. To celebrate, managing editor Lee Tran Lam is giving us a sneak peek into two amazing homes featured in the new July issue.

“The images are from a Melbourne home renovation, where everything went suspiciously well! (Yes, that’s right, even that it sounds too good to be true, this project somehow managed to escape budget blowouts and lengthy delays – and it looks really great.) It belongs to the family of Jo and Marcus Fogarty and their Melbourne home’s makeover was overseen by friend, architect and designer Matt Martino. Styling by Emma O’Meara and photography by Nikole Ramsay.”

Dark, edgy, masculine. Need a place to stay in the middle of Berlin? Why not Nomads via Suite.030. I’d be fabricating a fantasy life to suit the apartment the entire time I was in residence.

It sits like three boatsheds close to the beach. Walls and windows lift and open, close and slide allowing the outside in and its occupants to reconfigure the space to suit. Simple black exteriors belie the skilfully layered timber interiors. Takapuna Beach, Auckland house by Strachan Group Architects.
