The Millennia Park office building is the first refurbished building in South Africa to have achieved a 5 Star Green Star SA Office v1 ‘Design’ certification from the Green Building Council of South Africa (GBCSA).
The 29-year old Stellenbosch building was considered an architectural time-piece in Stellenbosch and more than 96% of the original structure was maintained in the refurbishment. Achieving a Green Star SA rating on a refurbished building is a daunting task due to the different challenges which need to be assessed, compared to the construction of a new building, which can be designed green from the start.
