Design: Atang Tshikare
“Born in Bloemfontein and influenced by his father’s visual storytelling, Atang Tshikare is a formidable Creative bringing to life functional art resembling living organisms and animals.”
Atang Tshikare, born in Bloemfontein, South Africa, has a bragging rights list concrete enough to rival any young contemporary creative and he has a complementary humble demeanour to match. Influenced from early childhood by his father’s graphic style and visual storytelling, the self-taught artist has grown into a multidisciplinary creative.
Tshikare’s work at present consists of functional art and sculptural furniture. They often take the form of living organisms or animals, decorated in distinct graphic patterns and elements highlighting his narrative, stemming from his wild and vast imagination with nuances of Tswana and other Southern African cultural references.

When I create pieces it is a form of self-expression and self-preservation of my culture with information as an academic element that strengthens the design feature. To have optimum self-knowledge I need inner reflection in a holistic approach and as a designer I use multi-sensory creations to enhance the tactile nature of my work” says artist Atang Tsikare . Meet South African multidisciplinary creative artist Atang Tshikare (@atangtshikare) whose expectional work in sculptural furniture is one to watch. - #atangtshikare #SouthAfrica #sculpture #manjujournal #artist https://www.instagram.com/p/CC9PgqkggVs/?igshid=hgt7f39idt9l

South Villa is a five-story penthouse in the award-winning Clifton Terraces apartments on Victoria Road, Cape Town. Its elevated position on the iconic Lion’s Head takes in extravagant ocean views and local landmarks such as Table Mountain and Clifton’s pristine beaches.
The terraced form of the building is designed by SAOTA. Deep overhangs and a restrained natural palette of materials blend into the beautiful natural surroundings while landscaped terraces on each level ensure that the building will settle even more effectively into its environment over time. The building mimics the existing contours of the site, sensitively ensuring that the views from neighbouring sites were unaffected or even improved. The interior décor and interior architecture, by ARRCC and OKHA, has stylistic connections to the style moderne movement of the Art Deco period of the 1920s and 30s. Photography by Adam Letch, Niel Vosloo.
.
Each apartment effortlessly binds state-of-the-art technologies into the fabric of its functionality and existence with 24/7 security, services, and amenities that afford a lock-up-and-go lifestyle for summer or all-year-round living. Through the seamlessly integrated home automation system, almost any aspect of the villa can be remotely controlled and personalized, including the lift, pool and Wi-Fi.
“What started out as a normal interior architecture brief quickly evolved into my passion project with a focus on coupling global design and South African art and craftsmanship,” says the international client. The client felt it was a natural choice to work with ARRCC and OKHA on reimagining South Villa’s interior architecture and interior design respectively. “SAOTA, ARRCC and OKHA are each thought leaders in their own rights and as a group, their skills and strengths are even further compounded,” he adds.
Entering Clifton Terraces via its stone-clad reception area, a private lift ascends six levels to the penthouse and opens to a hallway featuring a full panel of Fantasy marble before reaching the private lobby of the penthouse. Here, a provocative layering of oak and brass inlay accents, together with charcoal grey ribbed timber skirting converge in a backlit slab of Verde Fume Onice Onyx beneath a shadow skylight and LED-lit walls.
Exiting the lift into South Villa, a classic clad steel mesh door leads into a double volume living area that features warm bronze and glass installations such as the feature staircase. ARRCC director Jon Case says, “Classical wall detailing has been given new life with a contemporary colour pallet introducing moody greys, deep blues and textured green finishes.” The living area in turn opens onto a 150 sqm terrace that boasts a raised rectangular heated pool that affords 360-degree, year-round views of Clifton and Table Mountain.
The penthouse doubles as a private art gallery, curated by OKHA in collaboration with the client and features works from galleries such as SMAC, What If the World and Southern Guild. Featured artists include the likes of Chris Soal, Galia Gluckman, Michele Mathison, Alexandra Karakashian, Mongezi Ncaphayi, Pierre Vermeulen, Chuma Maweni and Atang Tshikare.
There is a broad range of custom-designed OKHA furniture pieces featured in key areas throughout the apartment; from the master bedroom and the dining room to the formal lounge and lobby. Stand-out pieces include the double trapezoid-shaped Morpheus Dining Table and the ViA console in the lobby. Taking their cue from the architecture, OKHA’s emphasis was intentionally placed on the power of form, mass and materiality.

Inspired by African mythology, Cape Town artist Atang Tshikare and local studio Okha launched earlier this year, two pieces – a coffee table named Metsing, and a side table named Kaggen – part of an ongoing collaboration between them.
Each piece refers to a character in South African mythology: the Metsing coffee table is named after the Sotho term for “place of water”, and features three interconnected pool-like surfaces that form the table top. The Kaggen side table translates as “praying mantis”, which is referenced in the design’s arthropodic form. “The ideas came about from words and feelings rather than drawings and sketches,” Tshikare told Dezeen. “It was about tuning in and translating an almost spiritual concept into something tangible and present.” The structures are coated in patinated bronze and were made using a technique named “lost wax” whereby metal is cast in a wax-coated mould. The glass was tinted blue, to make it appear more like water.

Five architecture and design events in December from Dezeen Events Guide
A retrospective covering more than 400 projects by architecture firm MVRDV is among the events featured in Dezeen Events Guide this month, alongside major design fairs in Miami and Shenzhen.
Other events taking place in December include a CPD webinar on Chris Precht's recently completed modular treehouse Bert and a keynote on art and architecture from Foster + Partners' Spencer de Grey, hosted as part of this year's virtual World Architecture Festival.
Read on for details of five highlights and see Dezeen Events Guide for more architecture and design events around the world.
Upcoming events include exhibitions by MVRDV (top image) and Dior at Design Miami (above)
Design Miami
1 to 5 December, USA
Following the cancellation of last year's event, Design Miami will once again take over the Miami Beach Convention Centre this December alongside Art Basel, as the city celebrates the return of Miami Art Week.
Now in its 17th year, the collectible design fair is set to exhibit work from more than 220 international galleries, with new furniture collections by Rick Owens and Lebanese designer Khaled El Mays on show alongside a surreal silver bedroom installation by Crosby Studios.

A simultaneous programme of events and exhibitions will be taking place in locations across the city, including the hotly anticipated Miami outpost of gallery Superblue.
Here, visitors can find a new permanent cafe designed by Yinka Illori as well as the Dior Medallion Chair Exhibition, which will see seating designs by Nendo, India Mahdavi, Atang Tshikare and other greats on display in the US for the first time.
WAF Digital
1 to 3 December, online
The World Architecture Festival is going virtual for the second year in a row, offering what the organisers describe as the "widest access to the largest amount of content in the history of the festival".
Spread across three days, the live-streamed conference will see Grimshaw partner Kirsten Lees discuss the firm's design for the Arter Contemporary Art Museum in Istanbul, while Foster + Partners' head of design Spencer de Grey will give a keynote on how art can be incorporated into the built environment.
Beyond that, the programme features a particular focus on sustainable cities, spanning everything from local food production to the logistics of creating low-carbon high-density infrastructure, with Helsinki's chief design officer Hanna Harris set to discuss how the Finnish capital is planning to become carbon neutral by 2030.
Chris Precht is giving an in-depth lecture on his Bert project for Dezeen
Architecture Project Talks: Bert by Precht
2 December, online
The latest installment in Dezeen's ongoing series of Architecture Project Talks will see Chris Precht share an in-depth lecture about his modular treehouse Bert, built using FSC-certified timber and modelled on the cheeky one-eyed characters from the children's film Minions.
Taking place at 1:00 pm London time on 2 December, the live-streamed talk will see Precht explore the challenges of building a modular cylindrical structure from prefabricated wooden elements, as well as making his case for why architects shouldn't take themselves too seriously.
Those who are interested in attending the webinar, which counts towards continuing professional development (CPD) points for UK architects, should register their interest here.
Design Shenzhen
9 to 12 December, China
The organisers of the Design Shanghai fair have this year expanded their offering to Shenzhen, also known as the Silicon Valley of China, with the city's inaugural design fair set to take over the Shenzen Convention & Exhibition Centre with stands from more than 150 local and international and brands.
Italian architects Gaetano Pesce and Carlo Ratti, as well as MVRDV Asia director Steven Smit will headline the event's Forum talks programme, which also includes a roster of other big names from Sou Fujimoto to SANAA's Ryue Nishizawa and Layer founder Benjamin Hubert.
Dezeen's China editor Christina Yao will be hosting a panel talk to platform some of the emerging Chinese practices that swooped up top prizes at this year's Dezeen Awards.
Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen is among 400 projects included in the MVRDV retrospective
MVRDVHNI: The Living Archive of a Studio exhibition
Until 4 September 2022
Rotterdam's Het Nieuwe Instituut is showing a major retrospective of work by MVRDV, pulling together hundreds of projects from the firm's archive including the recently opened Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen.
These are represented through drawings, sketches, scale models and renders, arranged in a vast space designed to resemble an architect's studio rather than a traditional museum gallery.
"This exhibition shows how our first 400 projects influenced later work," said MVRDV partner Jan Knikker. "We think it's important that our archive is accessible to everyone. Sharing knowledge makes our profession richer."
