On a chilly morning in Hillcrest Jane Linley-Thomas met up with Ignes de Beer of Uys & White Landscape Architects to talk about the greenery of Westown Square and the special spaces created through hard and soft landscaping.
Westown Square’s landscaping aims to reflect the environment and rich cultural tapestry of Shongweni. This area is known for its old-country charm and equestrian elegance, and our landscape design will honour those deep-rooted connections.
From the choice of plants and the design of the walkways to our entrance features and children’s play areas, our vision goes beyond merely building an aesthetically pleasing and green shopping space. We want to spark a connection between visitors and the local landscape in a way that fosters a sense of community and belonging and redefines the shopping experience.
