Eclectic and fascinating are possibly the two words which best sum up Gaia. Everywhere your eye comes to rest there is a pleasing curation of extraordinary objects… acquired on travels, inherited from family, bid for in auction houses and purchased in art galleries. A vast, sun-lit hallway’s wooden floor frames an internal garden. Original chunky dry-stone walls are completed with new exposed brickwork. The library’s walls are lined with traditional dark wooden shelves, then a graffiti mural in primary brights is found in the next room. The eaves are high, exposed, and feature fabulous triangular windows at each end of the house, bringing radiance to every corner of this extraordinary shoot location. Set among tall trees and softly verdant gardens in lovely, leafy Constantia, you can reach Gaia within 25 minutes of leaving the city.
Shoots only.
