WEX1

The architecture of this development draws on the materials and ethos of the surrounding precinct, using the brick, glass, and steel of the rail-side industrial warehouses reformed into a contemporary aesthetic while still aiming to retain a classic, timeless appeal.

​

The active ground floor shops are fronted with 5m steel and glass shopfronts, allowing public access via two entrances into a highly visible yet well protected internal retail street. This retail will be encouraged to trade into the late evening to enhance activity along Albert Road.

​

The hotel and apartments sit elevated above the traffic, with views through to Devils Peak, Table Mountain, the city, and Table Bay, becoming more expansive with every level as you ascend.
