A multi-facetted building consisting of a fully equipped medical centre which also provides dementia and frail-care sectors with 24 hour on-call doctors. Other facilities include a restaurant, cafe, hydro-aerobic pool, gym, massage rooms, luxury apartments and public and private gardens. The project concept was to create a state of the art high-end retirement complex that accommodates all aspects of the ageing process. The building is made up of 4 storeys split into utility, public, and private making up the last 2 levels. The development is also made up of 53 retirement cottages consisting of 2 and 3 bed homes. I had the privilege of leading the construction phase of this project. The development is designed with a specific typology which seamlessly blends into the charm of the Constantia suburb, whilst almost every house has been tailored to the specific needs of each client.
