\/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Located in Salt Rock, this residential renovation began with a simple question: How could the home become more functional, uplifting and reflective of the family who lives there? The original house lacked character and needed a fresh approach to its finishes and layout. Lisa\u2019s response was to introduce texture, carefully considered colour and playful design moments while keeping the overall aesthetic light, timeless and uncluttered.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A space with personality<\/strong><br \/>\nLisa\u2019s design philosophy centres around creating homes that are not only beautiful but also meaningful to the people who inhabit them. With a background in psychology alongside her interior design training, she approaches each project by looking beyond trends and focusing on how a space should feel.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-44125 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/blog\/2026\/08\/14\/lisa-twyman-transforms-a-salt-rock-home-into-a-coastal-retreat\/salt-rock-home-4\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-4-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/blog\/2026\/08\/14\/lisa-twyman-transforms-a-salt-rock-home-into-a-coastal-retreat\/salt-rock-home-3\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-3-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>For this home, the brief evolved into creating a laid-back holiday cottage atmosphere &#8211; a home that could embrace relaxed coastal living while still feeling sophisticated. Inspired by the idea of a space where The Lumineers might enjoy a seaside escape, Lisa introduced a balance of playful elements, natural textures and unexpected details.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Texture, colour and considered details<\/strong><br \/>\nRather than relying on bold statements, the home\u2019s impact comes from layers of subtle design choices. Textured finishes add depth, while pops of colour bring energy and individuality to the spaces. The result is a home that feels fresh and contemporary.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-44125 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-medium'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/blog\/2026\/08\/14\/lisa-twyman-transforms-a-salt-rock-home-into-a-coastal-retreat\/salt-rock-home-8\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"279\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-8-279x400.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-8-279x400.jpg 279w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-8-713x1024.jpg 713w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-8-768x1102.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-8-293x420.jpg 293w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-8-696x999.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-8.jpg 1052w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 279px) 100vw, 279px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/blog\/2026\/08\/14\/lisa-twyman-transforms-a-salt-rock-home-into-a-coastal-retreat\/salt-rock-home-9\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"280\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-9-280x400.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-9-280x400.jpg 280w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-9-717x1024.jpg 717w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-9-768x1097.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-9-294x420.jpg 294w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-9-696x994.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-9.jpg 1055w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 280px) 100vw, 280px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-44154\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2327\" height=\"1504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6.jpg 2327w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-400x259.jpg 400w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-1024x662.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-1536x993.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-2048x1324.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-650x420.jpg 650w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-696x450.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-1068x690.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/08\/salt-rock-home-6-1920x1241.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2327px) 100vw, 2327px\" \/>Details: www.lisatwyman.com<\/p>\n<p><strong>Photos:<\/strong> Stephanie Veldman<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When a home feels effortlessly welcoming, it\u2019s often because every detail has been thoughtfully considered &#8211; from the way natural light moves through the rooms to the textures, colours and materials that invite you to linger.
