GRID ZONE
Status: Completed 2009
Location: Riverhorse Valley Business Park, Durban
As a sister development to Grid Iron; the same criteria for success applied to this speculated development. Whilst the site allowed for more parking & landscaping the key also lay in the maximizing of the site in terms of developable floor area, sufficient yard & turning space for articulated vehicles, innovative design providing flexible office components & sufficient parking. A contributing factor to the success of any development of this nature, not only lies in flexibility & optimization of space but the successful & cost-effective provision of natural light & ventilation to the warehouse areas; again this was introduced through the use of vertical cladding in the form of polycarbonate sheeting & horizontal louvers.
