Bespoke art for Sandton's creative hub
Bespoke art programme tailored to Sandton's urban energy, featuring large-format murals and sculptural elements. The work reflects Johannesburg's restless creativity and the ambition of those who choose to work here.
WeWork Sandton sits at the commercial heart of Johannesburg. The brief was to create an art programme that matched the precinct's pace and ambition -- bold work that would hold its own against floor-to-ceiling windows, polished concrete, and the city skyline beyond.
The artwork needed to set the tone from the moment members stepped off the lift: this is a place where serious work happens, but where ideas are welcome too.
Johannesburg's art scene is raw, layered, and confident. We drew on that energy -- referencing the city's graphic design heritage, its street art, and the bold geometry of its architecture. The palette skews towards deep contrasts with punctuations of vivid colour.
Each piece was designed to work at different scales: impactful from across a large open-plan floor, yet rewarding on closer inspection. The programme balances large statement works with quieter pieces in meeting rooms and focus areas.
Large-format mural anchoring the main co-working floor
The Sandton programme encompasses a wide range of techniques and formats:
All materials were specified for longevity in a high-traffic commercial environment, with finishes that can be cleaned and maintained without specialist care.
The art programme has become a defining feature of WeWork Sandton, giving the space an identity that goes beyond the co-working formula. Members and visitors regularly engage with the work, and the murals have helped position the location as one of the more distinctive addresses in the Sandton business district.
