Tuynhuys Apartment Building / Robert Silke & Partners
Tuynhuys is a futuristic new block of 47 new apartments in the heart of Cape Town’s old city legal district – directly opposite the Cape High Court. Set in a stoic row of Victorian and Cape Dutch commercial buildings, this playful and exuberant (but never irreverent) new residential building proves that innovative modern high-rises are indeed possible (and even desirable) in the most sensitive of historic locations.
