Interior designer Sue Bond highlighted how her work changes the way people live. “Through design I’m able to influence lifestyle. My clients live in a certain way and it’s my role to maximise the use of the space, functionality and beauty of their homes. When I leave, there’s a new energy in the home and my clients’ lives are revitalised.”

Member of the panel Mica Curitz of Mica Curitz Art Consultancy shared how her clients embrace art to learn more about it. “I love to educate and observe over time how a piece they’ve bought 10 years ago for the living room, suddenly takes centre stage in their garage – art buyers love coming home to their favourites! They become bold and their collections deepen”.

With the excellent lifestyle that Cape Town offers, panelist member Cape property specialist and CEO of Knight Frank, Richard Hardie highlighted that property will continue to grow as an investment and remains an important choice for both local and international buyers. “Sentiments have already lifted after winter with President Cyril Ramaphosa actively selling South African investment abroad. Summer is always a good time for buyers in Cape Town”.
