Whilst I’m sure that every one of them has their strong points I believe that one of Architect and Builder’s main strengths is our project features. Every issue we feature four to five completed commercial projects ranging from offices, retail, hospitality, industrial and medical. When we commit to featuring a project we endeavour to showcase it extensively and publish a visually stunning ACCOUNTS Peter Fenner-Solomon 082 521 3916 [email protected] printed record. If a project requires 12 pages to do it justice then that’s what we will dedicate to it. I don’t believe in half measures when we are featuring projects that have sometimes taken years to complete and are the result of the blood, sweat and tears of hundreds of people ranging from the developers right through to construction teams.

I would like to encourage you to approach Architect and Builder first when wanting to have a project considered for publication. Nobody goes the extra mile on features like we do and that’s the way I plan to keep it. If it’s been published many times in other publications I am less likely to want to feature it, so give me a call whilst the project is still under construction so that we can discuss whether CONTACT US TELEPHONE [phone] FACSIMILE 086 551 8323 EMAIL [email protected] WEB 4 www.archibuild.co.za it is suitable and book a slot to feature it in a future issue once it is complete. 2016 + 2017 SAPOA PROPERTY PUBLICATION OF THE YEAR Editorial
