A careful curation of colourful details, furniture and finishes puts an innovative spin on apartment living in Cape Town

Happily for Dawid Augustyn, the chance to set up home in Clarens, one of Cape Town’s coolest new apartment blocks, happened almost effortlessly. “I worked with the developers— Malcolm Kluk and Christiaan Gabriël du Toit of KLûK CGDT—as the project’s quantity surveyor, so I’d been watching its journey from an insider’s perspective from the ground up,” shares the homeowner, who is the managing director of the DA Quantity Surveyors.

Augustyn also owns a design company, Establishment, which is now in its 16th year and represents a roster of leading design and lighting brands including DCW éditions, Would and New Works. The establishment also offers its own range of bespoke pieces; all of which have an aesthetic that works well with the interiors of Clarens. “Their vision of a community lifestyle, based on a non-standard approach to the look and feel of the building and interiors, resonated well with me,” he shares.

The building facade, designed by Hours Clear Architects for KLûK CGDT, is an open-brickwork screen in a custom-made pink pigmented concrete. When lit internally, this creates a glowing, lantern-like effect.
