THE MODERN CAPE DUTCH STYLE
The so called "Modern Cape Dutch" style is a new development that has sprung up on golf estates and wine farms in recent years. The syle borrows much from the past... the white walls, sliding sash windows and gabled roof ends. However the gables are usually modern and simple while architectural concrete beams using modern construction methods, add flexibility to the floor plan, and enable greater size rooms than in the Original Cape Dutch farm houses.

Also on De Zalze winelands golf Estate, this house departs from the traditional symmetry in favour of an asymmetrical modern design. Columms next to the pool add a poetic touch.
