Hyde Park House
Johannesburg, Gauteng

MORGENSTERN and MORGENSTERN: Architect

Date:c1970
Type:Homestead
Status:Unknown

The architects have designed many houses, each bearing the imprint of variable creative impulse, but each subscribes to their basic principles of arrangement. Each embodies the idea of circulation, movement and enclosure; the idea of intense relationship between house and setting.

It was perhaps the initial preparation and consideration of the plans over a long period which formulated a solution which has proved suited to the owner's requirements.
