South Africa 2005: Utopia. Nowhere. Close.

House Millar
Nelspruit, Mphumalanga, South Africa - Mathews & Associates Architects

This house proposes a low-key and responsible alternative to the excesses of security estate architecture. Across South Africa, security estates create islands of architectural concentration in suburban and rural landscapes. The defining characteristic of these estates is that architects are briefed to deliver self-conscious and self-referential houses in competition with neighbours and in denial of the immediate landscape.
