Space Between A-I-R

Cape Town, South Africa

Mini-retreat on the Garden Route offering wellness, movement, and creative space in a glass-and-wood building overlooking the Indian Ocean and Tsitsikamma Mountains.

The Artists House is a residency on the lower slopes of the Constantiaberg mountains in Cape Town, offering a focused creative retreat with studios, grounds and shared space for exchange. Facilities include a traditional printmakers’ press, a potter’s wheel and a creative work area, with a separate exhibition venue on the same grounds. The house sits among mature trees in a largely indigenous garden — a birding hotspot — which also holds a geodesic dome and a natural swimming pool. Residents have the space to develop new work or deepen an existing practice, with mentorship, collaboration and shared learning part of the experience. Practical infrastructure includes uninterrupted power, electronic security, video access control and fibre internet.
