THE ANGLE ON OXFORD, JOHANNESBURG
Designed by dhk architects, The Angle on Oxford is a joint
development by G5 Properties and Attacq consisting of A Grade
offices, a hotel and retail, strategically situated on Oxford Road
in the new high density commercial zone between Sandton and
Rosebank in Johannesburg.
The Angle will provide more than 18,900m2 of office space, 200
hotel rooms and 1,177m2 of retail with four levels of parking provided
below ground.
The office component has been designed to accommodate various
occupancy alternatives, with two discrete multi-volume entrance
lobbies creating two distinct addresses with highly visible branding
opportunities, and also provides connecting bridges and staircases
at the upper levels linking the two wings.
The office accommodation delivers a world class internal working
environment with floor plates of exceptional flexibility enclosing a
light filled atrium. The façade is fully glazed from desk height, creating
light filled working spaces with panoramic views and illuminating
the crystalline structure at night.
Balconies at each level of the northern office building are enclosed
by projecting wings forming a dynamic edge to the building, and a
roof terrace will provide outdoor space for occupants with spectacular
views over the treetops in all directions. The forecourt facing
Oxford Road forms a generous tree-filled public space surrounded
by cafes, restaurants and shops creating a vibrant pedestrianfriendly environment.

The neighbouring hotel building is differentiated by its vertically
arranged windows in contrast to the office building’s highly glazed
façade and it shares the forecourt space as well as having its own
dedicated porte-cochere.
Designed in line with sustainable design principles each elevation’s
orientation is integral to building performance with facades designed
to limit heat gain while providing an internal environment filled with
natural light and with views of the green urban landscape beyond.
The site is conveniently located close to public transport and
enjoys fast and easy access to Johannesburg’s most prominent
business hubs. Perfectly positioned, The Angle will provide an iconic
new address in this prime location in Johannesburg.
