Africa’s first biophilic development, The Fynbos

As green living, building and design continues to take centre stage, eco estates and sustainable developments are becoming increasingly popular WORDS: ATLEHANG RAMATHESELE PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

W

hile the appetite for estate living is on a steady incline as people crave heightened security and a sense of community, the demand for living in eco estates in particular is growing. This is partly due to rising environmental consciousness among homeowners and property investors. In a nutshell, eco developments encompass all the typical amenities associated with estate living but tend to have an emphasis on nature and outdoor activities in unspoilt settings. It’s largely about connecting to nature and preserving it.

Green solutions such as solar panels, passive heating and cooling of buildings and water recycling are also often a regular feature at eco estates, providing cost-effective and energy-efficient estate living.

According to Samuel Seeff, chairman of the Seeff Property Group, aside from offering a

more sustainable lifestyle, eco estates contribute to preserving the natural environment and conserving indigenous wildlife and vegetation. It also encourages the use of sustainable construction and materials.

The emphasis on green living has also spilled over into design.

“Green” and “sustainability” may have been buzzwords for quite some time but they only started gaining meaningful traction in the South African landscape recently.

South Africa’s adoption of the movement has steadily grown as the need to build and design more sustainable developments became increasingly apparent. “Due to a growing population, added waste, diminishing resources (particularly water) and the rising costs of living, it’s imperative that we design more sustainably,” says Stokes.

Peter Stokes, partner at dhk Architects, says their firm’s investment in green and sustainable design and the related thinking at a fundamental level started to gather momentum around 2017. “This coincided with the founding of the Green Building Council for South Africa (GBCSA), which was followed shortly thereafter by amendments to the

“It’s essential that South Africa focuses on reducing water use, carbon emissions, and pollutant and waste generation, while simultaneously enhancing energy efficiency (and making use of renewable energy where possible) and carefully selecting materials that will not have long‑term negative environmental effects,” he says.

National Building Regulations and a notice in the Government Gazette in September 2011 to include the first chapter on environmental sustainability,” says Stokes.

Stokes acknowledges that there are still some factors hampering green design and building locally, insufficient awareness and understanding, and a lack of transformative legislation and incentives chiefly among them.

He believes designers need to put the building inhabitants and the environment first, get back to basics, understand and implement passive design principles and adjust their design outputs for the various climatic regions in South Africa. dhk Architects’ commitment to sustainable design and building for wellbeing can be seen in their Parklands College’s new Innovation Centre project. The building was made to “breathe” on its own. All the larger rooms are fitted with CO2 sensors and an automated window opening system that measures air quality. It automatically opens windows incrementally to optimise the air and eliminate the need for air-conditioning.

The V&A Waterfront’s newest 6 Star Green Star Design awarded commercial building, the Ridge

Breathing building

Over the past decade, the V&A Waterfront has blazed a trail of sustainable development rewarded with Green Star accreditations, including the Allan Gray building, the Watershed and No.5 Silo – all 6 Star Green Star buildings.

nd k to A number of other firsts include ment the former Grain Silo, which was adjust transformed into the Zeitz MOCAA rious (Museum of Contemporary Art a.

Africa) and the boutique Silo Hotel, as well as No.6 Silo incorporating o the Radisson Red (the first 5 Star g Green Star hotel). heir ation The V&A Waterfront’s newest as 6 Star Green Star Design awarded All commercial building, the Ridge, h CO2 deploys some of the most ndow advanced sustainable building s technology available globally. ens “We designed the Ridge to be mise a world-class living, breathing for building by incorporating a number of standout features,” says the Waterfont’s development director, Mark Noble.

This includes the zigzag shaped engineered timber façade ingeniously orientating the glass windows towards the north or south, which prevents lower angle sun from the east or west from entering the office spaces. This provides natural daylight while reducing glare.

Another feature is the thermally activated building system technology (TABS) installed into the ceilings above the working areas. “This cools the concrete structure by water circulating from the chiller and heat pumps on the roof, which cools the air around the workspace,” Noble says.

A first for Africa

The first biophilic development in Africa, The Fynbos, has been launched in Cape Town and will see a 24-storey living, breathing mixed-

use building take residence in the heart of the CBD. Once complete, it will blur the lines between nature and the built environment. One of its most notable sustainable design features is its exterior draped in a 1,200m2 vertical garden made up of 30 species of indigenous trees and 20 species of shrub.

Paul Upton, head of developments for Dogon Group Properties (marketing agents for The Fynbos), says the concept is centred on integrating nature into an urban setting. “Biophilic design is an approach to architecture that looks to connect building occupants more closely to nature. Biophilic buildings incorporate things like natural lighting and ventilation, natural landscape features and other elements to create a more productive and healthier built environment,” he says.

Climate control at The Fynbos will be provided by natural layers, with exterior plantings having a cooling effect to provide shade and screening. Upton says vegetation is an absorptive barrier that assists in natural noise reduction. Plants also absorb harmful chemicals and clean the air.

“Water efficiency at The Fynbos will be improved through low-flow fittings, wellpoint filtration, and a sophisticated rainwater harvesting system, which is integrated into the unique cantilevered and staggered balcony design,” he says. PV solar panels to generate double the electricity quota needed to power the common areas, minimising fossil fuel consumption, and a centrally heated water system allows for economies of scale and avoids individual geysers, will be integrated. Expansive windows and glass sliding doors, utilising specialised double glazing that reduces the amount of energy spent on heating in winter, will allow in abundant natural light.

Eco estates worth mentioning Boskloof Eco Estate, Somerset West

This estate, located adjacent to the Morgenster and Vergelegen wine farms, offers spectacular views amid unspoilt and protected fynbos and endangered Renosterveld.

Expect to see small buck and other animals and a wealth of bird species roaming freely.

Devonbosch, Stellenboch Winelands

Devonbosch, a mixeduse development offering residents a lifestyle where retail, business and recreation intersect, is gentler on nature.

The development eases the demands on the environment by managing water resources,

providing sustainable energy, and implementing internal waste recycling measures.

The buildings are designed through environmentally sound practices such as the installation of double-glazed windows, photovoltaic panels and smart cooling and heating installations.

Meyersdal Eco Estate, Johannesburg

This estate, which forms part of the 1,100ha Meyersdal Nature Estate, is just 10 minutes south of the Johannesburg CBD. Only 15% of the land is developed.

Facilities include mountain bike tracks, a 7km hiking trail, dams stocked with fish, game species, including kudu and steenbok, and a wide variety of birdlife.

Simbithi Eco Estate, Shaka’s Rock

This 430ha estate is a coastal paradise of vegetation, wetlands, undulating hills, stunning vistas and outstanding amenities. There are dams stocked with fish, a world-class equestrian centre and well-maintained walking and mountain bike trails.

Pezula Private Estate, Knysna

Bordering Noetzie Beach, Pezula is one of the best environmentally aware luxury developments in the world, offering a beautiful location and 5-star facilities, such as a golf course and club, tennis courts, sports grounds and the Pezula Hotel and Spa.

Luxury living at its best Experience next‑level convenience and comfort in South Africa’s largest parkland residence WORDS & PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

I

magine skateboarding in Hyde Park, practicing yoga in Central Park or picnicking in Paris’s Jardin de Luxembourg.

These are all wonderful ways to spend one’s time – but what if you could do all of this, and more, in one destination? In fact, you can – at Steyn City’s City Centre residents can spend their leisure time participating in a myriad of outdoor activities in one of the largest parks imaginable.

City Centre was envisaged as a development that could rival the very best addresses in the world. How? It’s simple, really – by offering homes far superior to any other apartment development. In terms of space – all bedrooms are large enough to fit a king-size bed, the ceilings are high and luxury fittings are standard, such as Blu-line integrated kitchens with Gaggenau appliances and Kohler sanitaryware, as are double glazing and air conditioning. But, more than this, it’s the convenience of City Centre that truly sets it apart.

Leisure everywhere

Jogging on the 45km well-lit promenade, day or night

After surveying the world’s best‑loved leisure spots, Steyn City Properties set out to replicate the activities people typically enjoy; then make them all available to residents at the City Centre.

The only difference is people living here don’t have to venture

more than a few steps from their front door to enjoy MTB or running – even at night, thanks to 45km of floodlit promenade – outdoor exercise stations, tennis, horse-riding, golf, swimming, birdwatching or fishing.

They can even have a day of beach-style fun without packing suitcases or crossing any toll roads, thanks to Steyn City’s 300m lagoon, where kayaking, SUP boarding, water slides and pedalos are all on the menu for the day’s entertainment, alongside a stop at the Laguna kiosk for refreshing gelato.

There’s even a choice of restaurants and coffee shops – so, whatever mood you find yourself in, there is a way to express it.

Spoilt for choice

Offering so many options is very much a trademark of City Centre and, indeed, Steyn City itself. It dovetails neatly with another cornerstone of the lifestyle here: convenience. Even before the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, Steyn City Properties realised the value of having everything you need, when you need it – without navigating jostling lanes of traffic or long queues.

The sense of ease that accompanies such a lifestyle is amplified by the City Centre’s

SUP boarding on the lagoon setting in a 2,000 acre indigenous parkland, complete with an outdoor sculpture park and an abundance of birdlife and fauna – and, of course, the very best security ensuring that all amenities can be enjoyed with total peace of mind. The strategic location of the development – between the key hubs of Midrand and Johannesburg,

in the latter’s rapidly growing “new north” – is yet another plus.

It is highly unlikely that South Africa will become home to another development of this size and scale – which is why it’s no exaggeration to say that an investment in Steyn City is a once‑in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Given the scope of this offering, Steyn City Properties may be considered well on its way to achieving its admittedly lofty ambition: to see Steyn City recognised as the world’s best lifestyle estate; a blueprint for urban living.

Experience it for yourself City Centre, where every day is extraordinary.

Prices range from R2,3m to R35m.

Festive celebrations at Melrose Arch

It’s the time of year when everybody gets together to celebrate the festive season in many ways, and Melrose Arch is no exception with a programme full of entertainment for the whole family WORDS & PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

I

f there’s one thing we’ve learnt in the last two years, it’s to be grateful for both the big and small things, celebrate every achievement, and rejoice and enjoy the festivities whenever an occasion arises, and that’s exactly what Melrose Arch is doing this festive season.

Celebrating this special time wouldn’t be the same without a visit to appreciate Melrose Arch’s famous lights, which are being turned on on Friday, 12 November at 7.30pm. Stroll through the precinct and take photos of the beautiful, illuminated streets, and buy a hotdog, sweets, biltong or an ice cream on High Street or visit one of your favourite restaurants for dinner.

Spirit of cheer

The annual Christmas Market is where you’ll find arts and crafts, festive decorations, fashion items, handy gadgets and more – in other words, the perfect present, so don’t miss it! The market takes place from 2 to 4 December.

While not a traditionally South African instrument, the bagpipes are very popular here, as is evident in the response of crowds whenever the Jeppe Pipe Band plays at Melrose Arch. We’re pleased to welcome this special band back on Friday, 26 November at 6.45pm. Come meander through the precinct with them as they play seasonal favourites against the backdrop of our beautiful lights.

Of course, this time of the year is all about children and Melrose

Arch has entertainment lined up to keep the little ones busy.

Santa’s Corners, in the middle‑ and upper-level Galleria, have a host of fun activities lined up, including story hours, painting, toys and Santa Claus and his elves.

Melrose Arch has also teamed up with Moove Motion Fitness Club’s Kids Club and from 12 November to 9 January, young visitors aged between five and 13 will be able to enjoy basketball, action soccer, trampolines, table tennis, a jungle gym and a Playstation 5 arcade area between 3pm and 9.30pm.

All proceeds from the Moove Motion Fitness Club’s Kids Club will be donated to SA Harvest, Melrose Arch’s selected charity for Destination Christmas.

Welcoming new tenants

The festive season celebrations come at the end of a remarkable year at Melrose Arch, which

despite the pandemic and difficult financial times, has welcomed a number of new tenants to the precinct, including Turkish restaurant Istanbul Kebab, Swirl ice cream, Koodoo, Walkingpad, Premier Body and Health, fashion boutiques Opulence, Jo Matthys and Chiefs of Angels, and more.

“Now, more than ever, we’ve realised the importance of sharing special times with special people, especially our families,” says Mike Vermaak, MD of Melrose Arch. “The festive season is always a memorable time of the year and here at Melrose Arch, we’re pleased to welcome people to our beautifully decorated, safe precinct and help create memories they’ll cherish forever. This year, we have a lot to rejoice in and be grateful for, so let’s celebrate!”

WORDS: NICKY OBEL PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

known for will love their newly renovated Bombay Bicycle Club, simply known as BBC. Sit back, relax and enjoy both their great menu and the eclectic mix of over the top, somewhat crazy but never boring Bohemian décor.

Also known as one of the oldest gentleman’s clubs in the world, the BBC was redesigned by Cape Town’s Onnah Design, who changed the entire internal layout by literally turning it on its head, bringing the bustling city of Bombay to Gardens.

Although the BBC décor may have changed, when it comes to serving up a collection of all-time favourites from the menu, complemented by an ever-changing delightful specials category, those who enter the doors will savour every minute of this unique dining experience.

It’s fun, it’s eclectic and it promises to be a meal to remember. Mix that up with some classic cocktails and fabulous themed evenings and the BBC will not disappoint.

Harry’s Bar

The Chef’s Studio in Bree Street

The Bombay Bicycle Club in Kloof Street, Gardens

Harry’s Bar in the Grand Pavilion, Sea Point across the promenade on the Sea Point beachfront, patrons can enjoy this vintage haven in one of the Mother City's favourite seaside suburbs.

With its elegant atmosphere and playful spirit, Harry’s Bar is a perfect spot to enjoy a sundowner with the ocean as backdrop. There’s something to be said for the calming combination of a fresh sea breeze and summer sun to add that extra ambience to the bar’s beautifully presented, delicious servings of fresh-from-theocean delicacies and unique cocktail choices. Be sure to try their signature Sassy South Side cocktail – it’s simply divine.

Chef’s Studio

is The Chef’s Studio in Bree Street. This unique concept fuses beautiful interiors, cleverly articulated spaces, fine dining and interactive cooking. Interior designer Monya Eastman of Stokperd is responsible for the new look.

The Chef’s Studio hosts dining experiences and master classes for those who not only savour excellent food, but who get excited about cooking and preparing it too. Food aficionados can explore their culinary abilities under the guidance of a professional chef, before indulging in a multiple course meal, showcasing the best that fine dining has to offer.

There’s also a communal table for social dining and an elegant private dining area.
