Abstract
Innovation in architectural form is, unfortunately, rare these days as many designers
unconsciously resort to the use of fashionable clichés or international precedent. It is
refreshing, therefore, to come across uniqueness in architectural form, in an understated
building2 for a medical practice in Die Wilgers, Pretoria, completed in 2015.
