Wilde Sering explores the South African tradition of living life on the front ‘stoep’ offering a bushveld hideaway that figuratively grows out of its surroundings by imitating the free flowing branches of the numerous Wilde Sering (Burkea Africana), Boekenhout (Cape Beech) Lekkerbreek (Ochna Pulchra) surrounding the home.

A walk through the house feels like a walk on a bushveld path, with each room becoming a place to stop and appreciate nature.The front ‘stoep’ & living areas runs the length of the house, with rooms spilling off it.

Some external cladding elements are allowed to weather and rust, imitating the natural hues and colours of the bushveld. A rusted steel door constructed from an old railway carriage slides open to reveal the main living area. This home purposely confuses the traditional boundaries between a home and its surroundings.
