sunlight and revitalising views of the golf course and its vegetation .
The facilities include refreshment and catering stations for Mazars , a joggers shower station ( also available for cyclists ) and a roof top entertainment area to fully appreciate its sylvan setting .
The interiors and graphics draw their inspiration from the surrounding trees and this sylvan tone continues into the materials and use of colour . The interior architecture also complements the tone of an auditing firm to showcase their corporate values and brand identity . This is achieved throughout by Paragon ’ s finely honed ability at perspicuous value engineered design viz . stimulating but restrained without the monotony often associated with corporate design .
DEVELOPER ’ S REPORT Alchemy Properties ’ new development at 54 Glenhove in Melrose Estate achieved practical completion during May 2016 .
The site , which spanned over two residential properties , was consolidated into one stand . It is located on Glenhove Road , adjacent to the
Killarney Country Club . This position allows for expansive views of the golf course , along the tree lines of Melrose Estate and towards the Witwatersrand Ridge . Moreover , the building ’ s location at the base of Glenhove Road enables easy access to the M1 highway , Rosebank , as well as the neighbouring suburbs of Birdhaven , Melrose Estate , Houghton and Killarney . The site also exists along a Gautrain bus route that increases connectivity , via the train , to the Johannesburg CBD , Pretoria and OR Tambo International Airport .
Concept The building form sits atop a raised landscaped podium as a pair of two bold rectilinear shapes . Orthogonal fenestrations extend out of the building ’ s monolithic structures as reflective blocks , while a series of patterned openings pierce the building ’ s envelope to allow for the entry of light and views out to the east and west .
The building ’ s north and south façades are flush-glazed further extending floor-to-ceiling views to the golf course and Glenhove Road .
