SA designer to give Monaco palace a facelift

SOUTH African interior designer Stephen Falcke has been commissioned to give Monaco's palace an overhaul

His appointment comes a month after South African swimmer Charlene Wittstock wed Prince Albert of Monaco.

Examples of his designs can be seen at the exclusive Saxon Boutique Hotel and the Da Vinci Hotel in Sandton, and at the Summer Place conference centre in Hyde Park.

News of his royal job surfaced after fashion editor and stylist Jenny Andrew tweeted on Thursday evening: "The best news from (decor and design exhibition) Decorex so far. Stephen Falcke has been commissioned to decorate the Monaco palace".
