Client: West Property Fund in partnership with the Som group

Size: The newly completed 10,000m2 building is in Cape Town’s Richmond Park. The development includes 8,650m2 of vehicle showroom spaces integrated with 1,280m2 of office and customer facilities

Completed: November 2021

Design philosophy:
get\Worth is a successful buyer and seller of certified high-quality cars. In terms of design, the building concept pays homage to the cars housed within, featuring striking angular roofscapes inspired by aerodynamic vehicular forms to evoke a sense of movement and speed. The showroom is divided in two – reminiscent of cars speeding past each other – while the office is divided further, responding to the site and reinforcing the concept through another dimension. Internal lounges frame views of Table Mountain, reconnecting the ideas of man-made designs with the angular forms of nature. This bold and contemporary design creates an immediate landmark within the surroundings without an overbearing presence, welcoming visitors into the new get\Worth headquarters as well as the greater Richmond Park development.
