Situated adjacent to Herolds Bay on
the Garden Route, a mere 8 minutes
from George Airport, this hidden
gem is ideally located with 180
degree views of the Indian Ocean.
Authentic is one of the first words
that comes to mind when thinking
about Oubaai, designed to blend in
with the natural splendour of the
Cape. The eco-friendly ethos has
created a truly natural paradise,
providing a haven to an array of
wildlife. The estate is particularly
popular as it boasts the first Ernie Els
Golf course, but in this issue, Oubaai
caught Virére's eye for its beautifully
designed driveways and paving
designs.
Oubaai delivers an array of Cape-
style bush-hammer concrete and
coble carefully combined with natural
stone. The curbs flows seamlessly
into the road design, and the
traditional thinking is reassess to
create more than just hard surfaces.
The design challenges convention,
and is a prodigious inspiration of
precedents and just how much can
be done with traditional materials to
create an entirely different aesthetic.
