Vintage Cape Town is the story of the interrelationship between buildings and their occupants, the fusion of genealogy, architecture and the human mind.

Vintage Cape Town in the intriguing story of old houses and buildings – some of them dating from the early pioneer days – preserved in a city which during the last century has changed beyond all recognition. These buildings represent more than only fashions in architectural design and style – they reflect a way of life, they breathe the atmosphere of past centuries and give the history of the city on a microcosmic scale.
