Mouille Point Apartments

LINVISIBILE as Manufacturers

Introduction The six storeys brand new residential building is located in the most prestigious location in Cape Town, with a unique view of Table Bay at the front, and the scenic Table Mountain at the rear. Mouille Point’s four ultra-luxury apartments and a double-storey penthouse, are equipped with only Italian and German furniture. It is one of the most expensive private residential projects recently built in Cape Town. The well-known Italian architectural studio LPA (Milan) is the creator of the penthouse and the 1st, 3rd and 4th floors, while Cape Town’s leading interior design studio Make Architects is the designer of the warmer 2nd floor.


LINVISIBILE flush-to-the-wall system has been chosen by the Interior Designers not only for its clean minimalistic style but also for its clever space-saving features, widening furthermore the scenic living rooms and easing smaller spaces as powder rooms and en-suite bathrooms. LINVISIBILE, with its wide range of products, allowed the Italian and South Africans Designers to forget about the limitations of door sizes and finishes, making use of diverse claddings from Ceramic Tiles to the warm colour of Brass.


LINVISIBILE has been working as subcontractor since the conception of the project, assisting architects and designers, both in Milan and Cape Town, to choose the right products for their design requirements. During construction it has periodically supervised general contractor’s related works and, finally, has installed its products to achieve the desired result.


Furnishing Specifications


For this project, LINVISIBILE provided a total of 44 highly tailored doors, in a variety of typologies, finishes and dimensions. In addition to furnishing our doors, LINVISIBILE offered a complete service experience supporting our clients in the design phase, transportation and installation.
