Blackthorn Square
The Vision of Absolute Tranquillity Blackthorn Square Elisenheim What started, as an embodiment of nature and adaption of residential structures to fit the environment, intrinsically became the landscape itself. Situated between the rolling hills of the Elisenheim estate and stationed 10 km outside Windhoek, Blackthorn Square offers the choice of contrasts, the cosmopolitan city of Windhoek located to the north and tranquillity nestled in-between nature. With the support of City of Windhoek a quality town development has been established, the design of the architecture enhances the sense of space and unity within the environment. Located between two open green spaces Blackthorn Square is placed perfectly. The residents of Blackthorn Square will embrace the essence of an active life, with the outdoor activities offered by Elisenheim Estate such as bicycle routes and walking trails that run throughout the 2100 hectares of wild bush, for that true adventurer. From concept to completion the FaanBergh Winckler Projects Team envisioned a true Namibian residential entity that embodied the Nation and gave the Namibian people developments to be proud of. The Blackthorn is one of the indigenous acacia trees found in within Namibia. Black rhinos, giraffes, elands and kudus feed on the extremely nutritious leaves located on the young branches and pods of the Blackthorn. Through these natural elements of the Blackthorn providing an array of wildlife life sustaining nutrients, sustainability and environment inclusion was key for the development to succeed. Sustainability and the natural environment were considered for the choice of plants used in the landscape design on the Blackthorn Square site in order to preserve the natural environment surrounding the development.
HOUSEFINDER
A vision was developed in 2005 for a property development project that embodied the natural environment and cascaded over natural landscapes while accommodating the beauty and fluidity of the surrounding natural elements within the architectural design, thus Blackthorn Square was integrated into realisation.
With all 53 Blackthorn apartments crafted to adhere to the proximity and discipline of nature, the development truly emulates environmental distinction and simplicity within the architectural design. All 53 apartments are two bedroom units either having one or two bathrooms depending on your requirements. The open styled kitchen and lounge merges and connects the apartment with the natural environment surrounding your home. The choice is yours when it comes to Blackthorn Square, for the kids, you can decide to place your family on the ground floor with a tranquil courtyard and the built in braai feature will make sure you entertain the majestic sunsets that grace your view every evening.
