A man living in Johannesburg, Gauteng, turned his dreams into a reality when he redesigned a house he bought.

26-year-old architectural designer, Naissance-Victorieuse 'Naisvic' Tshituka, took to his TikTok account (@naisvic) to show off his beautiful home with social media users.

In his viral video, he shared that he purchased his first home in 2022 and built the house of his dreams, 'Ascension,' two years later.

Naisvic also showed what his 1930s house looked like nine months before he flipped it.

The young man's caption provided more details behind his home's design:

"'Ascension' embodies all the elements I admire in architecture: light, volume, green spaces, subtle curves, and timber.
"The building guides its occupants through various vertical planes, culminating at the 'pinnacle place.' The cross-shaped open plan throughout the house establishes a strong sense of orientation and scale within its environment."
