Addressing social sustainability through
vertical living solutions.


Through location and size alone, the Amanora apartment city project is the most prominent development of the Amanora Township. Located on a 600m long site, which divides the town right through its center, the project brief asks for a "Vertical City“ with high rise and high density, a unique and iconic structure. “An architectural marvel ".

This structure with peaks and valleys, canyons and bays, Grottoes and caves forms a real skyline for the township: The Amanora Hills.

Response

After careful analysis a network of slabs emerged in a hexagonal grid. The hexagonal grid with its 120 degree angles between the slabs is an optimum for light and views. The grid is positioned on the site in such a way that when cut along the site's boundaries it gives birth to three distinct building fragments.

These correspond to the three phases of development of the project. The two spaces in-between the phases allow for green pedestrian connections from the central park to the township.
