A
design for the new head office for the law firm Webber Wentzel on the highly
visible site at 90 Rivonia Road was prepared by GLH Architects along with the
developer’s professional team in November 2012, and submitted to Redefine
Properties Limited (Redefine) for use in their submission in response to an industry RFP
process. In the interim, demolition of the existing building at 90 Rivonia commenced. In
April 2013, the Redefine submission to Webber Wentzel was adjudicated as successful
and the main contract commenced in November 2013. The building was completed in
December 2015.
Philosophy
Webber Wentzel prides itself on its high-quality service across a range of practice
groups which has seen it consistently recognised as a leading law firm in South Africa
and on the African continent. The scheme offers a contemporary yet sleek and timeless
design, which is both internationally referential and locally grounded: an exceptional
home for an exceptional firm.
Site Location
The site is located in the financial hub of Sandton, Johannesburg. Well-served in terms
of freeway access, major road arterials, and public transport, including the Gautrain,
this area is a hub of significant growth for commercial, corporate, retail, and residential
tenants alike. The surrounding area offers excellent support amenities including retail
such as Sandton City centre across the road, healthcare services, and education.
