In Cape Town, South Africa, this former church was renovated and reinvented as a second home for Samuela and Danilo, an Italian couple, by architect Perry Harrison-Hyde. Both the architect and his clients chose not to overdo the furnishings to let the volumes and original architecture do the talking and unexpectedly went for a very contemporary artsy interior. Look at the original wood floors, and this ceiling high elevated guest room! How closer can you be from heaven?
