Bezuidenhout; the hybrid bath and dressing
room includes extensive white cabinetry that
all but disappears, instantly decluttering the
space and providing masses of storage.
The bath is from Crystallite Bathtubs &
Vanities (bathtubsandvanitiessa.co.za).
OPPOSITE The large volume created by
the barnlike pitched ceiling integrates the
bedroom and bathroom spaces, which are
divided by the custom-made bed. The divider
functions as a headboard on one side and,
hidden behind it, as a vanity unit.CELESTE’S HOME TRUTHS
The best things about living where I do are the space and
the nature. My own style is unique. Nature inspires me.
My favourite design style is modern contemporary. Our
favourite way to enjoy the great outdoors is running. To
us, indoor–outdoor living means family time, enjoying
every moment of every day. I collect memories in the way of
photo albums. My interiors motto is ‘If my husband likes it,
it’s a yes!’ My favourite piece of design advice is: it’s worth
spending money on good pieces. My favourite room at
home is my bedroom. A few of my favourite things include
chocolate cake, koeksisters and foie gras. My most treasured
piece of furniture is our Italian designer-leather couch. My
way of entertaining is relaxed with style. My signature dish is
fillet with pepper sauce. My favourite restaurant is Brasserie
de Paris in Pretoria. The best way to spend a weekend is with
my family anywhere outdoors. My most inspiring place is my
kitchen. My favourite travel destination is an island getaway.
My secret talent is love. I relax by reading at the pool. My
worst impulse buy is always clothing. The best time of year
is summer. My favourite shop is Litchi Dekor en Geegoed in
Pretoria. The soundtrack to my perfect weekend includes
‘Steal My Girl’ by One Direction.HOUSEANDLEISURE.CO.ZA HL OCTOBER 2015 59FOR MORE ARRESTING ESTATE HOMES
