Visa Head Office in Sandton

COMPILED BY Lindi Brownell Meiring

Designed by studiosixteen, the new 1250m² VISA Sub-Saharan Africa head office in Sandton was inspired by the “Life flows better with Visa” campaign.

The design takes into account the need for innovation within a corporate framework. Says the studio, “Following the architectural sweeping lines of the glazed façade of the building, we created an environment that is contemporary, but with a light industrial feel, incorporating our African heritage into the interior. We acknowledged that the space is the home of an established global brand with a corporate identity to uphold. The unrivalled beauty of the office interiors is worthy of the footprint and influence that Visa has.”

And what did Visa have to say? According to country manager Mandy Lamb, “We’ve certainly ended with an amazing result – truly one of the best Visa offices in the world.”
