TWELVEONB
GREEN POINT, CAPE TOWN
Blok, the Cape Town urban developer behind over a decade of city living, has unveiled TWELVEONB, its 23rd development and its fourth address in Green Point. Located at 12 Braemer Road, the development is set on a heritage estate, bringing a new identity to a site with history already built in. Blok’s continued investment in the suburb of Green Point is testament to how popular and superbly-run the area is.
One address. Endless secrets to discover.
Some buildings explain themselves. TWELVEONB reveals itself. Thoughtful design shapes a balance of brick and light, opacity and openness, fixtures and flow, a building that breathes with its neighbours, rather than overwhelming them.
Materiality tells the story before you even step inside. Warm, textured brick wraps the exterior, doing double duty as both filter and shield, letting light through while keeping the inside private. At ground level, a pocket park built for pausing rather than passing through, before the path narrows into a minimalist lobby.
Step inside and each home becomes its own quiet escape, tucked into the sky. Upper floors step back from the street to catch the sun, forming semi-enclosed pockets of outdoor space that pull daylight deep inside without giving up privacy. Inside, the finishes stay honest: exposed concrete, visible services, nothing hidden behind an extra layer. It’s a deliberate kind of simplicity, one where light and space do the work that decoration usually would.
