Station House sits proudly on a historically significant intersection where the dynamic energy of the Sea Point high street interfaces with the much sought after residential address of Fresnaye .
Developed by the Berman Brothers Group and D2E Properties , Station House pays tribute to this pivotal site and history in both name and design . Facing onto the landmark Sea Point Fire Station and the location of the old tramway link to Camps Bay , the architectural language takes cues from these in it ’ s simple , practical and robust materiality that presents an elegant timeless industrial aesthetic .
The Concept Designed by Vivid Architects , Station House celebrates community and convergence . It intentionally opens up at ground level to welcome all into its concourse . External street life blurs into the internal hospitality experience to ensure an active urban edge to the development in line with the street culture of Sea Point . Key to the architectural concept of Station House is ensuring constant life and activity that animates the building 24 / 7 . This is successfully done by two beautifully designed restaurants that were an integral part of the early design concept . Sonny & Irene is a restaurant and deli that activates and greets the street . The Nines , the 9th floor restaurant and bar , allows the public to experience the rooftop of the building with breathtaking 360 º views of Table Bay and Table Mountain further highlighted by the Atlantic Seaboard ’ s extraordinary sunsets and vibrant Sea Point lifestyle below .
The early conceptual reference to the old Tramway station link influenced the materiality and detail of the architecture as a more robust , bold and quasi industrial palette of finishes and tones .
