Opulence with an OCEAN VIEW

A CALM EXTERIOR GIVES WAY TO AN INTERIOR FILLED WITH BOLD COLOUR, LAYERS OF TEXTURE AND LUXURIOUS SURPRISES

- OLALA INTERIORS

This was a dream project for interior designer and CEO of OLALA INTERIORS, Schanè Anderson, who says, “I always have and always will love black. I always have and always will love velvet – its soft and tactile opulence is total indulgence. In the first project completed for this client, I designed and made a deep midnight blue buttoned sofa. The client loved it then, and still loves it now. That cemented his favourite interior colour scheme: black with saturated blues, deep sapphires, cobalt and navy.

“So now I have a client who also loves black and adores velvet. He travels extensively, does business internationally and he just fell in love with this Cape Townhouse and its unobstructed views over Clifton and Camps Bay.”

Designed by Jane Visser of Visser Architects, the home has four storeys, five bedrooms, 3.9m-high ceilings, bare white walls and panoramic views from the Twelve Apostles to Clifton’s beaches. This was the blank canvas that OLALA INTERIORS got to work with.
