I'm on the fence about the (brick?). Overall I like it though.......Where will it be built Joburg?

***dysan1*** · March 11th, 2006, 10:55 AM

i agree. how will it blend with the buildings surrounding it? i like the design, just dont see many brick buildings in sandton if my memory serves

joburg · March 12th, 2006, 10:54 AM

Nah I don't think it'll stand out at all. There might not be many brick buildings in Sandton, but I don't think this building is so bricky that it'll look weird..

Anyway.. I kinda like the design.

does it do a dissapearing act?

Wouldn't it be so cool if it did?

The reason it's different is because they're two buildings - the one is 13 floors, and the other is 15. If you look at the render Pule posted, you'll see how they both fit in to the whole complex. It's pretty cool I think.

Durbsboi · March 31st, 2006, 12:40 PM

oh yeh , didnt see that, it is a nice idea though 2 buildings one infront of the other.

hsark · March 31st, 2006, 04:54 PM
