OVERVIEW
The special thing about The Flamingo is that it so perfectly ticks every
single box of the ‘Three Ps’ of property: position, product, and price.

From a position point of view, the site is a jewel, being 150 metres from the biggest
attraction of the suburb: the much-loved Promenade. As in other world-class coastal
cities like Miami, Tel Aviv or Barcelona, this extensive seafront stretch is a magnet
that attracts sun-loving citizens from a wide area. Add to this the magnificent Pavilion
swimming pool and the plethora of shops, restaurants and cafes all around, plus the
spectacular Lion’s Head views, and you are clearly in the dead centre of the bull’s eye.

The product has been designed to dazzle, delight and – yes – disrupt the market. Robert Silke has
done a superb job on the architecture, and his curvaceous creation will not only uplift the Regent Rd
streetscape but provide wonderfully comfortable, warm and functional living spaces. In addition, our
collaboration with Weylandts is a game-changer, giving every buyer the best possible combination of
custom-crafted furniture and interior design, included in the price.

Which brings us to the third P: starting at under R1 million, these stunning units offer the kind of value
not seen in Sea Point for decades. We were determined to shake up the market and kickstart the next
cycle, and I’m confident our team has done just that. At interest rates and prices like this, we are fully
expecting this prime development to take off like one of the magnificent birds it has been named after!

CUSTOM-DESIGNED
FURNITURE
WEYLANDTSTUDIO has custom-designed a
bespoke range of furniture to complement
Robert Silke’s beautifully articulated and
highly functional living spaces.

Articulating the South Beach art deco


aesthetic meant adhering to elegant
proportions and a restrained palette,
while multifunctionality is essential to
maximize volume.

Think black accents, clever storage, and


subtle nods to the graceful curves of the
flamingo.

FEATURE MIRROR
The round corners of the large entrance mirror echo the
building’s exterior while floating shelves complete an eye-catching
composition — the perfect backdrop for selfies or last-minute
glances before leaving the apartment.

ARTIST’S IMPRESSION
FOCAL NOOK DESK
The curved architectural recess has been furnished to double as a
work desk, drinks nook or display area. Feature lighting adds visual
intrigue while the ingenious design enables plenty of options in
terms of functionality.

UPHOLSTERED HEADBOARD & BED STORAGE


The headboard in black natural full-grain leather from Weylandts’
Tankwa range provides plenty of comfort while the base of the
customised Haiku bed offers additional storage.

LOW FLOATING UNIT


Monochrome accents meet elegant proportions in this sleek
entertainment and storage unit. A black oak veneer top is rounded
off with curved detailing and circular finger–grip sliders.

CUSTOM OTTOMAN
The flamingo-coloured, pill-shaped ottoman is another playful touch.
Custom-made to open up for additional storage, the ottoman provides
optimal functionality while looking pretty in pink.

ADDITIONAL FURNITURE
A selection of minimalist contemporary classics completes the picture

with black steel, textured fabric and strong elegant lines.

privacy for each balcony but allows the floor-to-ceiling glass doors to frame
world-class views of Lion’s Head. Many of the one-bed corner units have frontal
views towards the Atlantic Ocean, and some feature super-sized porthole
windows.

The apartments are intricately designed to maximise space and light, and
feature quirky internal curves that mirror the rippling flamingo-shaped rhythm
of the façade. It is this level of detail and design love that makes this unique
building such a delight.

Public areas are well lit and welcoming, with solid stone floors in the foyer and
lift lobbies. A dramatic rooftop terrace offers residents a spacious sundowner
venue and a sensational Signal Hill skyline.
