Looking back at 2017
In this article, we’d like to take the time to have a look back at some of the highlights of 2017 for Tensile Cables. We have finished some fantastic new projects, and launched a new website. Read more below.
Century City Hotel Trellis
The Century City Hotel opened in early 2016 adjacent to the Century City Conference Centre as part of the mixed use Century City Square development by the Rabie Property Group. The development has been awarded a 4-Star Green Star – Custom Mixed Use Design rating by the Green Building Association of South Africa.
New Website 2017
A long time in coming has been a relaunch of the Tensile Cables website under our new brand identity including stylish new layout and added functionality. Now it’s possible to request a quote with selected product directly from our website for even quicker turnaround time on order processing. How does it work?
Trellises of Bougainvillea in an Exotic Garden
African Landscape Design with Otten & Partners Architects collaborated on the refurbishment of House Schotte and the result was an elegant home in Tamboerskloof with the most beautiful top quality finishes. An outdoor living area looks from the porch to an elevated pool and its landscaped surrounds.
Seattle Coffee Company Sea Point – Green Wall in an Urban Setting
A brand new Seattle Coffee Company store has opened in Regent Road in Sea Point, Cape Town and Tensile Cables supplied the cable trellises for their all new outdoor area. Over four years ago, Craft of Architecture (COA) took on the task of introducing a new look to the Seattle stores.
A Pool Room in the Forest
At a residence in Noordhoek, Tensile Cables supplied the cables for a roof truss for a wet room, including an enclosed heated swimming pool, a steam room and bathrooms. Contractor and project manager Nevil Walter, designed the pool room with transparent roof sheeting, and a hollow triangular section supporting it.
