WHAT An imaginatively renovated Victorian house in a busy cosmopolitan area, filled with the tools of this couple’s trade… It’s just what you’d expect from the owners of O.live Chemistry of Living interiors stores – a magpie’s collection of beautifully curated objects in an appropriately stylish setting. A central courtyard (with plunge pool) ensures abundant light, while the pristine whiteness of the floors and walls makes a neutral canvas for their art, Persian rugs, and classic and vintage pieces.
WHO Rupert Smith and Warren Matthee O.live, 021-426-5773, 021-447-6392, olivestudio.co.za
