Offices
_AVNA has substantial experience in office related developments in the role of design, documentation and implementation as principal agents. These services were rendered to commercial office developers, private and government institutions, offices for multiple tenancies and single user buildings. The latter includes work done for JHI on the Sanlam Head Office. Office developments of note include the “Tyger Park VI” building in Bellville, “The Links” office park in Somerset West and the more recently “St Vincent Place” for the government of Trinidad & Tobago.
François Nortjé researched international office design trends in advisory capacity to the Sanlam Head Office complex in Bellville and designed the extension to the in-house shopping mall. AVNA approaches the office environment from an ergonomic point of view, planning for the staff as well as ecological sustainability due to high running cost and energy wastage typically associated with this building type.
AVNA recently completed an audit of the water and waste use in the Sanlam Head Office builing and planned savings linked to a business plan. AVNA is a member of the Green Building Council of SA and François Nortjé of AVNA an accredited green building service provider. The St. Vincent Place Office Building was LEED rated by the client, Bouygues Batiment, Design and Build Contractor.
