Urban sophistication

This tranquil tenth-floor warehouse apartment located in Cape Town, South Africa, is the home of Brit-born fashion and interiors photographer Micky Hoyle.

Using the sea and mountains as inspiration, Hoyle has created a relaxing ambience with a neutral colour pallet and natural materials.  The 200sqm living area is all open plan, which compliments the relaxed, laid-back surroundings.

I love this seating area!

 

Modern technology is subtly incorporated amongst the home accessories so as not to detract from the natural look of the decor.

What do you think of the use of colour, or lack of?  I like the calming effect the gentle hues have, although I would like to see a few accents of colour dotted around.  Perhaps colour just doesn’t fit in a place such as this?  Lovely all the same!
