Text description provided by the architects. The structure links an existing residence and outbuilding, used primarily for entertainment purposes, on the southern slope of the Bronberg Mountain in Pretoria, South Africa. The spaces were only connected by a timber walkway constructed on the forest floor that leads past a waterfall cascading into a deep pond constructed of natural stone. The songs of birds hang tangibly between the foliage of the indigenous tree canopy where light filters through the cool shaded air in beams of the misty haze.
