Hive of activity
This contemporary wine rack in Jackie and Danielle Uitenweerde’s home in Somerset West immediately catches the eye. Jackie is the owner of Design11, a company that laser-cuts decorative steel screens and structures for indoors and outdoors, and he conceptualised this design himself. The rack, inspired by the hexagonal cells of honeycomb, was cut from steel and then powder-coated in a soft golden colour. Visiting friends loved the rack so much that it has become part of the Design11 range. Known as The Hive, it is available in a variety of colours.
Keep it cool
Hans and Charlene Nieuwoudt made quite a few changes after moving into their home in Die Boord, Stellenbosch about five years ago.
This space, originally part of the kitchen, is now partly an entrance hall and partly the vinotique – a room that provides the optimal conditions for storing and aging wine. Exposed bricks and the original raw cement floor enhance the authentic wine cellar atmosphere.
