012 Central in Pretoria, South Africa’s administrative capital, is one example of the diversity in our design portfolio. We were tasked by City Property Administration to complete a renovation of a large industrial shed tucked away in the city’s CBD. Our light-touch insertion provides amenities to support its use as an events space, while maintaining the integrity of the historic industrial fabric. We used shipping containers to form some key new facilities alongside the existing structure, celebrating the industrial warehouse aesthetic. Most of the existing brick fabric of the building was retained, including broken parts of the building such as the existing windows.
