apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Escapes: Inspiration from Durban, South Africa

The first time we posted about Neville's South African pad, Apartment Therapy readers fell in love. Eclectic and charming, unique and inspiring--his home is truly one of a kind. So we were all ears when he emailed us photos of a place of inspiration for him in Durban...
 
 

The store is called C&B shop and it's located in Neville's hometown. Since he's a good friend of the owner, he snapped a handful of photos and sent them our way. Because Durban is on the coast and enjoys a tropical climate, the decor is inspired by its surroundings. Tons of texture, dark woods, big leather chairs and beach finds are all part of the decor that make up C&B. Our favorite element is the black wall which seems to have a textured surface (fancy indeed). We love the mix of coastal decor in a luxurious setting--thanks Neville!

Great pachypodiums! The botanical prints above the bed look somehow sexual... which I like. ;)
