CO-WORKING SPACE
WeWork’s 9,770m² office at 155 West Street in Sandton placed the brand at the heart of Sandton’s financial district. Paragon Interface fulfilled the role of architect of record, adapting the global design strategy for the South African market by specifying locally manufactured materials, advising on artwork and furniture, and aligning construction details with regional standards. As a refurbishment, the workspace is designed around a multi-volume atrium with an activated staircase that connects the multiple floor levels, which emphasises WeWork’s focus on community. A coffee bar with lounge areas, as well as pause spaces are surrounded by flexible offices and meeting rooms with the ground floor of the atrium also used as a flexible space. The result is a vibrant workspace that balances international workplace design principles with Sandton’s corporate context, creating a space that is at once dynamic, functional, and locally grounded.
