Tembaletu Sports Centre, Gugulethu

– CONSULTANT to dhk

A new sports centre for Tembaletu School for Learners with Special Educational Needs (LSEN) in Gugulethu. The project was initiated by OCAL Global, a non-profit focused on empowering differently abled people, with the aim to create a world class accessible sports facility. The centre will house a fully accessible four-court sports hall and gym with an elevated running track and spectator seating. A translucent wraparound façade exposes the movement within and allows light into the space to become a glowing beacon at night.

David lead the project team as an Associate Director at dhk, and continued his role on the project as a consultant to dhk, after leaving and starting PLATFORM. David also provided sustainability consulting to the client, OCAL GLOBAL through PLATFORM, providing a green-star pathway to a potential 5 star design rating.
