INFORMATION
Date of building
Dramatic timber front doors act as a gateway to the gallery-like space beyond, designed by DHK Architects with interiors curated by David Collins Studio. Having opened in 2019, upon entering the Delaire Graff Owner’s Villa, exquisite detail and monumental scale are perfectly in balance creating an atmosphere of elegant contrasts inspired by African palettes and textures, with European touches. The Owner’s Villa incorporates bespoke materials and soft furnishings throughout with the design team opting for texture, softness, subtle African motifs and the feeling that everything is hand-worked. The Owner’s Villa is a personally curated gallery space including celebrated African works from Laurence Graff’s private collection.
