Alice Lane Phase 2
Hatfield Studios
Alice Lane is a landmark development situated on the corner of
Alice Lane and Fifth Street in the heart of Sandton.
The development consists of three new iconic office towers
surrounding a central, ‘streetscaped’ piazza. In total, approximately
70,000m2 of premium grade rentable office space is being created
in the three towers. A common design language binds the three
buildings. Materiality, however, has been varied across the buildings.

of building 1 and 2 but building 3 will be a full glass façade. The
champagne-coloured aluminium cladding panels on building 2 appear
to change shade in various light conditions, giving the building a
life-like quality. The completion of the second building in the Alice
Lane trilogy brings the vision of three iconic buildings surrounding
a distinctive piazza closer to being realised.
The goal for the development of Hatfield Studios was to provide
world class, unrivalled accommodation in an environment conducive
to students’ academic studies and lifestyle. Developed by the
Feenstra Group and designed by Boogertman + Partners,
Hatfield Studios offers security and student orientated design with
the best location, providing accommodation on the doorstep of the
University of Pretoria.
There are two basement parking levels forming the footprint of
the development. The roof level of the podium development houses
most of the common facilities such as laundry room, games room
and study room, and spills out onto a green landscaped external
area complete with benches and paved w
