Through its architectural redevelopment, the site now has significant presence along Rivonia Road close to the Sandton Drive intersection, within a stretch of redeveloping real estate home to a range of blue-chip tenants, inducing many attorneys’ practices, engendering a natural symbiosis with advocates’ chambers. The site is well positioned in terms of visibility as well as vehicular and pedestrian access within the neighbourhood, ensuring that wayfinding is clear and logical, and that building users can easily reach the excellent surrounding amenities. Philosophy 2 Pybus seeks to represent the pursuit of business and legal practice with transparency, equity, and humanity, giving the advocates chambers an identifiable and distinctive home from which they can more easily integrate with their city context.
