“The role of the designer is that of a good, thoughtful host anticipating the needs of his guests.” Charles Eames
There is a sublime pleasure in spending your holiday at a home where every space has a delight and every room is thoughtfully designed. A natural flow from indoor to outdoor spaces, means the witty repartee can fly between the cooks and the socialites around the kitchen island; making it easy to grab a cold drop of something from the fridge, with the laughter of the kids in the pool plays a happy backdrop.
CVC and the team, really prides itself on the fact that each of our handpicked holiday homes has beautiful design features and carefully curated spaces.
One of these gorgeous homes is Tone Alexander’s Noordhoek villa, Le Vue d’Alexandre. His keen eye for detail and beauty means that you can relax and luxuriate in stylish surroundings. There’s always a side table placed just where you need it, the sumptuous couches on the veranda are perfectly positioned to catch the afternoon breeze, and the views of the mountain are beautifully framed by the landscaped garden.
Tone’s garden’s win awards, and the formal garden category in the Noordhoek Open Gardens comes as no surprise, with its perfectly pruned hedges and Iceberg roses, without forgetting the quirky gin bar (nicknamed ‘The happiest little gin palace’), which lures you out across the manicured lawns for a sundowner.
Tone was also asked by a London-based client to tackle the interior and exterior transformation of The Milkwood, a heritage Victorian cottage in Gordon’s Bay. Once again, he’s created a holiday home that invites you to relax and unwind.
We look forward to hosting you in one of our designer homes soon. Click on our Peak Season Offers to find the perfect holiday home for you.
