For its new HEADQUARTERS, local advertising agency Grey's brief was to combine a  CONTEMPORARY South African feel with a FRESH, MODERN, VIBRANT aesthetic. And the architectural design firm nailed it.

DESIGNED TO INSPIRE, GREY ADVERTISING Africa’s new headquarters is a space to breathe, dream, and invite creativity and collaboration.

The agency moved from the bustling Sandton CBD to a new location in Bryanston – an area that has always been regarded as one of Johannesburg’s most attractive and verdant suburban spaces, and one that the team felt had the best prospect of developing as a new corporate headquarters hub.

The project was a revamp of a four-storey office building that was redesigned and given a facelift by architectural designer Julian van der Linde and his team. The re-imagined building consists of three floors of spacious offices, and a mezzanine café with views of Midrand and the Magaliesberg mountains. It’s a space that aligns with CEO of Grey Africa Paul Jackson’s vision of building a creative business culture that inspires others to be the best they can be. It’s something he describes as their “Open” work culture.
