Description
This colorful urban neighborhood in vibrant Capetown, South Africa has nicely contrasting colors. These two homes alone use the surprising combination of yellow, red, orange and green. The historic Bo-Kaap neighborhood, formerly the Malay Quarter, housed slaves from Malaysia, Indonesia and Africa by Dutch colonists in the late 18th century. Supposedly, rental terms of these houses dictated the walls must be white. When slavery was abolished in 1834 and the Cape Malay slaves bought their homes, many of them painted them bright colors as an expression of freedom. Note the contrast between the security of the iron grillwork and the homey welcome implied by the potted plants and personal touches such as the two accent mosaics with their multicolored fragments..
