Yum!’s new flagship KFC store at The Wedge in Rivonia, South Africa, was updated to showcase the franchisor’s new streamlined digital ordering process while complying with the brand’s refreshed, International corporate brand identity.

Featuring recognizable key brand signage and the preferred Eva-Last composites for an improved, more natural aesthetic, the structure and flow of the building had to advance to facilitate fast, efficient delivery, reflecting the shift away from traditional Point-of-Sale purchase towards more online, indirect orders.

The challenge was to invigorate the inner-city surroundings, consolidating two
adjacent erven and expanding the existing building’s capacity using modern design

concrete jungle with yet another overbearing, dominant hunk of concrete and
steel…a tall order!

The newly built Thatchfield Retail Centre in Centurion is dressed for everlasting success with a striking ‘tri-colour’ patterned façade to give it a distinct and dramatic identity. The obvious need was to differentiate the 5,211 m2 convenience centre with high footfall anchor tenants Checkers, Woolworths and Dischem from its neighbouring competitors with an eye-catching, yet functional design that would stand the test of time.
