LA MOTTE (THE FRENCH REVOLUTION)

I'ts a cloudy day in the proclaimed French town of  South Africa situated 45minutes away from the buzzing Mother City. In the driver's seat is my partner in crime Nicoleen, approaching the boutique town vineyards on the roadside are the clear sign that we have arrived in the famous Frenchhoek. We make a left turn in into the vineyards, welcomed by a bold sign La Motte and a warm smile from the guard we drive pass into the new developed La Motte, its green everywhere the 'verf' is looking spectacular. Getting of at the parking lot we meet with some of our colleagues, on the north side is the main entrance, behind that is the French Revolution or sould I say the Rupert Revolution. What ever word is used to descibe this manifistation we all couldn't wait to experience this moment. The out come of this project is a sophisticated design that pays great home age to historical arcthitecture, a job well done to Malherbe Rust Architects, as a student this is a a motivation and shows us as young designers how to balnace the relationship between old and new.
