Internship. Episode #15

September hasn't been too bad thus far, with the continuation of the Occupation Certificate drawings for Mill Square, Eikestad and Andringa Walk in Stellenbosch; Cat Ladder proposals for Andringa Walk; Admin work, as well as the usual site visits and site inspections. 

Other than that, there was a proposal for a new Woolworths expansion situated in the Eikestad Mall, which has been pretty exciting coming up with various base plan layouts for the clients approval. A new project link has also been introduced with the proposal of previously designed wind lobbies to be located at the Entrance of both Eikestad Mall as well as the Andringa Mall portion. Various schedules and air-curtain details were required for these two schedules. 

This past week, I also came across a rather insightful and extremely interesting documentary about a subversive architecture, Santiago Cirugeda from Seville - trying to make a difference about reclaiming urban spaces for the public due to the state leaving around 500 000 new buildings empty. Truly amazing work that Cirugeda and his team are doing for the people of Seville. 

Enjoy the short documentary below. Until next time!
