WEWORK 80 STRAND
WEWORK, 80 STRAND STREET
CO-WORKING SPACE
At 80 Strand Street in Cape Town’s CBD, Paragon Interface acted as architect of record for WeWork’s 3,865m² office. Working from the brand’s global design parameters, the team tailored the concept to suit Cape Town’s local context, specifying locally sourced materials and finishes to balance a raw industrial aesthetic with premium design standards. A ground floor reception and community bar area connect to the bustling Strand Street urban environment with unique timber staircase connecting members to the working floors above. Flexible shared offices and meeting rooms are complemented by warm, comfortable pause areas, creating a collaborative environment with a distinctly local flavour. Delivered through collaboration with the London design team and local consultants, the project reflects both the global identity of WeWork and the vibrancy of Cape Town.
