PROJECT dhk Architects
Sustainability and social impact
Growthpoint’ s investment has established a lively, community-focused commercial hub that integrates social, economic, and environmental sustainability. Adaptive reuse retains embodied energy, while energy-efficient systems, high-performance glazing, and indigenous landscaping lessen operational impact.
A model for future development
House Tolmay may stand as a landmark in the Lowveld, but the Longkloof Precinct shows that in urban Cape Town, respectful reinvention is achievable. dhk’ s project demonstrates how heritage-sensitive environments can be reimagined into walkable, detailed, people-centric spaces – where history is not erased, but elevated into a live, thriving future. ■
