It takes a family of visionary designers to create a home like this | FULL INTERVIEW

- This week’s location was created in much the same way that a band jams and creates music. If each room in the house was a member in the band then it is how these rooms related to one other which resulted in the final design.
Italian designer Georgio Armani insists that to create something exceptional, your mind must be relentlessly focused on the smallest details. Which was how husband and wife design team Rudolph and Phia Van der Meulen built their home - from the ground up.
At the entrance is a figure sculpted in steel, as a metaphor for how vulnerable human emotions can be.
The main living area is made up of a double volume family room that connects through to the open plan kitchen and covered terrace. With the stacking doors open, it becomes one large indoor, outdoor entertaining space.
The use of screens allows the mood of the dining room or kitchen to be transformed in seconds between relaxed and open to intimate and sophisticated - then returned just as easily.
This level of detail shows how not a day was wasted in the four years of design and building it took to create this house. Which includes cupboards, custom made and imported from Italy.
The pool, spa and entire home are heated and cooled by a geothermal system fed from boreholes a hundred metres below and from above, by solar panels on the roof. This is an incredibly practical, self-sustaining home.
The LED lit staircase in concrete and wood is cantilevered from the wall.
The bed has a Japanese serenity to it, an artistically offset, light coloured rug contrasting with the drama of the bathroom.
With it’s timber slat framing and the bath and shower positioned for morning and winter sun, it’s a treat to start your day here before choosing your outfit in spacious, his and hers dressing rooms.
As designer accessories go, this house beats them all and what a testament to South African style.

Nothing like going to the office after a long day at the office.
Joseph Roche' it doesn’t have that home feeling to it
Light woods are great and airy. You guys must like Old-fashioned dark woods in grand mansions libraries which are very creepy
Joseph Roche' whoever works in a space like is a lucky bastard!
hahaha spot on
Joseph Roache you made me laugh 😂😂😂😂. Spot on.
The woman sculpture, I find it amazing work of art, Absolutely great artwork!
there is nothing as tranquil as hearing an architect explain their own designs
One must admit that he took absolutely great care in carefully avoiding any detail or feature that could even remotely suggest or remind warmth, cosiness, intimacy, sense of home, or organic nature. This is another of those many architects who think that a combined salad of concrete, steel and 50 shades of grey is at the cutting edge of design. And he even managed to bankroll his brother's business! Genius!
I would have loved to watch this space being built.
stunning. The idea and use of un-convensional material is breath taking. Amazing job
Beautiful home, love the clean and elegant design.
Wow!! this house is beautiful facade views landscape and interior decoration. Amazing house!!!
A Perfect complete house.... amazing
Wow! ABSOLUTELY, DELICIOUSLY GORGEOUS!!! and the house is worthy of her spectacular beauty as well . . .
Love it, especially the use of artificial and natural light which add visual interest to the space. I’ve never seen light integrated into walls like it is here. Also really like how sliding doors are used to make the space more flexible. My least favorite part of the design is the severe concrete facade but having lived in SA for a couple of years, I know the frontage limitations that exist due to security concerns. The sculptures are stunningly beautiful for modern art. The female form is effectively used to add aesthetic elegance to this home and video.
The lights on the staircase make the house really beautiful
I like this very much...it feeds the mind and the soul.
This house is gorgeous 😍😍😍
Beautiful!
absolutely divine space and design
I love everything about this house. Yoh!
This is such a busy design... it's like ok we finished the room, let's add this element too!
Can't complain though...NICE LEGS.
Absolutely Gorgeous!
Beautiful house on the inside I love art
I like the lighting in this art gallery
This is a beautiful property definitely my style although I would add my own shenanigans to it. Will definitely give it an 8/10.🥰👏🏾👏🏾😊👍🏾
This house looks amazing, spacious and clean.😍🔥
The ringing in the back ground music is a perfect doorbell sound
AMAZING !!
The house is amazing.. I would like to take a look at details, like concrete and wooden stairs or the other bedrooms. The lady is glorious too. Gratz!
on the whole, perfect example for minimalist architecture, nice one
WOW So many great ideas
One of the MOST AMAZING houses by Nico vd Meulen Architects. Absolutely STUNNING!!!
Not to my taste,not a home,its like a furniture sales room.No personal touches,looks cold visually but yes he is obviously into pure design.not minimalist but certainly on those lines
I like it from the outside only.beautiful.
Thembekile Vokwana has that office feel to it.
What do you think of our Delray Estate near Miami
Beautiful work
Just amazing.
Gorgeous I need to live in this place
I love the lightning on the stair case
Cool, fabulous, stylish and smart. The house, I mean. Definitely _not_ the interviewer.
the beauty of luxury, having too much rooms and space that you willl NOT need. feeling alone in a big space, reassuring them self that everybody wants their life!
Usually don't like a house that's too modern but I'm actually loving this one, the only thing that I would change is the jacuzzi in the middle of the house.
Amazing home.
Great job 😍😍😍😍
I loved it... It matches my style.
I love it so much 😲
"Well Rudolp, this is what I call a 'moooster' bedroom".... yess!
great work
🔥 inspired🙌🏽
Dope!
best modern design and useful house i've seen. ever.
"the use of screens allows the mood of the dining room or kitchen" to go from gallery/shopping mall chic to modern corporate conference room!
I wasn't always a fan of this show but my grandmother loved it a lot
What was wrong with you???
Love this house
Beautiful
I like the outer architecture!
6:51 That Handrail is LiT!!!!!!
Am I the only one who love this house 😯
You are.
Genius Architecture
Pretty house. Good design, appealing to the eye.
6:48 i tremble when i saw the steps starts to bend a little. i cant handle it even though it is aesthetic
Exactly.
The bathroom counter is a 1 cm thick steel slab. This is useful . . . if you ever want to weld in the bathroom.
this is art.

No termites in this house! BUT, wonder if it's in the migration path of the cape "whatcha MA kallit"?
Awesome home..."Yeshua/Jesus is the way"
i want a simple country house to enjoy days of my life with family!
Very nice house I like it
Masterpiece
egész szeép lett :)))
Nobody in this family has such vision. A vision together. Last time, Ananth and I shared the same vision. Now, Gone with the wind.
I give it 9.5
Out of 100
Iqbal Sjarfi got me on that one
Very playful design
Agree how much of hard work u guys did to reach this. But am sorry to say it's looking like luxurious villa (hotel) but not home
Nice minimalistic industrial design, finally a house without vintage crap
100% agree
The voice over guy is giving it all...
งามอีหลี...บ้านหลังนี้
Everything is high quality appart the resolution of the video
A Beutiful house x
2:06 that’s actually a pretty cool art piece 😯
It'll be nice when it's finished
It does look like a art gallery
I'm all for a non traditional home but this is more of a museum or art studio with a lobby and some bedrooms.. it will be a nightmare to keep all of the glass clean from the dust, smoke and particles in the air... you will have to wear gloves to keep down on finger prints.. privacy is very limited your neighbor could see what your cooking with a telescope.... and lastly I don't think I would be looking at any house with her dressed like that... My wife wouldn't get out of the car.. she would say are you buying this for us or because of her!!!!

Luxury Listings I haven't seen your Delray Estate video send me your link

If you can afford such a house, you will have an army of maids in uniform cleaning your glass walls daily just like you see in Spanish soap operas.
we have some cognitive dissonance going on lmao..
dream House 😍
where this house build in and in which year its build's up
Красивый, уютный дом
Take care of environment as well, install solar, water harvesting system and more trees in such a big area
What do you think of our Delray Estate near Miami
Nice
Dream house!!! When can I move in?
Solar panels , geothermal...
Beautiful house.
please have more videos about Urantia papers
The "steel canvas" in the formal living room is hideous. Looks like our apartment complex mailboxes....
5:18 Ahem ... The gentleman kindly allowed the cameraman to his job.
Ahh a man of culture
anyone know what the song is @ 5:50
I think it's gorgeous
Yes she is 😂
I love it. Can we have you design for us in Nigeria?
Emmanuel Uweh the climate would not allow that
I LOVE houses, I love modern houses and all, I'm an absolute enthusiast for them.. however, this house is somewhat missing something, can't quite put my finger on it though.. other than the fact that this doesn't really feel too homey.. it's beautiful but it's not all too homey.. and I like the use of negative and positive spaces but I'm not seeing too much of it, if I'm being honest.. the master bedroom actually seems wuite nice but other than that, I find this house a little eh.. if they wete going more for an aesthetic vibe or a vacation home,yeah I can see that
this is huge
It depending on what you want in mind, subject to your liking for each n individual design.
I came for the home and couldn't take my eyes off her legs! Works of art!
What was the builder / designer group?
im going to keep it short ......... Beautiful house and Beautiful woman :)
For when you want to live in a shopping mall.
What do you think of our Delray Estate near Miami

It looks like a museum or modern gallery building from outside.
