Audi Snÿman Interior Design has been shortlisted for the Interior Design Scheme – Middle East & Africas Award in The International Design and Architecture Awards 2022.

The brief given to Audi Snÿman Interior Design was for a modern home that is detailed, unique, and bespoke, featuring individuality in every way. The clients’ lifestyle also needed to be incorporated; an entertainer’s dream home where family and friends could come together in a warm and contemporary space. Where quality and luxury are key. The designers created an interior design scheme of decadent opulence that is somewhat understated, and totally bespoke.

Maison Benie is located in a prime residential development outside Johannesburg and epitomizes country living in a secure environment away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, thereby providing a unique duality between country living and a cosmopolitan suburban lifestyle. The clients wanted the extraordinary for their home and were prepared to have unique custom features and items crafted and manufactured for them. Placing their trust in Audi Snÿman Interior Design, the interiors of the home radiate style, luxury and class. With the estate being renowned for some of the most magnificent fauna and flora sightings and benefitting from spectacular views of the beautiful Magalies mountains, the exceptional interiors are paired with views out towards the surrounding nature for an impactful experience.  

Opulence is a driving force in Maison Benie’s interior scheme. Unique black and white contrasts abound, creating a modern and contemporary feel. Wall finishes include luxurious wallpapers, tile and stone cladding whilst bronze artefacts, brass wall art and commissioned wall paintings have been installed throughout the home to add a striking appeal to the interiors. A double volume black and white contrast entrance hall with curved glass balustrading and a massive entrance sculpture welcome guests into the home.

The accents that are found in the entrance continue into the dining area which is plush and extravagant. Lounge areas are warmer and filled with textures, whilst still featuring bespoke pieces and luxurious finishes, such as the TV lounge with bespoke furniture and artwork, and an upstairs pyjama lounge. A formal lounge, complete with a lift bar and bespoke furniture is tied together with brass insets that complement the bespoke sculptures. Unique brass and antique mirror wall art adorn the wall of the master bedroom, and the ensuite bathroom leads to an outdoor lounge area to enjoy the surrounding views. The rose gold ladies’ champagne bar is finished with leather and brass accents, and the gentleman’s bar is complete with blue velvet bar stools and a bespoke life-size glass statue of father and son.

Everything is about uniqueness and has been perfectly curated for the clients to have their dream home. It also encapsulates the personalities of the entire family to ensure all its members are at ease. Maison Bénie is truly a marriage of art and functionality.
