Design of a new storage facility in a disused parking lot of an industrial site in Retreat.
Store-Age
In 2007, we were appointed to design a new storage facility in a disused parking lot of an industrial site in Retreat. Despite the neglected nature of the site, it was situated in a very convenient location – on the outskirts of Retreat yet very visible from the M3. The storage building could, therefore, service Tokai, Retreat, Constantia and Diep River.
Stor-Age, the client, had very particular requirements for their building in terms of loading bays, security and the storage sizes and specifications. All units are in increments of 3 sq.m, and the corridors are a ratio of the size of units on each floor. An efficiency percentage was also an important requirement so as to determine an acceptable return on investment for the developer.
