Cape Dutch Gable


After work I had an appointment with an old client of mine just around the corner from our offices in Houghton, right next door to the Great Park Synagogue. This lovely Cape Dutch style building used to be the White House Gallery and now houses the offices of Light Kinetics. The Cape Dutch architecture with its Dutch Gables originated in the seventeenth century and is one of my favourite architectural styles. Although this building looked newish, it was a stunning of Cape Dutch style of doing architecture and just had this personality as seen here in the setting light of the end of the day under this large tree that had lost most of its leaves due to winter.
