Brooklyn Studios
A New Generation of Student Accommodation
Introducing Brooklyn Studios, the latest addition to Growthpoint’s Thrive Student Living, just 75 metres from the University of Pretoria. This premium accommodation caters to the diverse needs of both first-year and senior students, offering an accessible, dynamic environment for a vibrant living experience.
Innovative Design Solutions
Growthpoint appointed Helena to rejuvenate Brooklyn Studios with a design that strikes a balance between fun and maturity. By integrating vibrant colours and engaging features, she exceeded the government gazette standards for student accommodation. Helena’s design approach focused on multifunctional spaces that support both learning and social interaction, fostering an inclusive community.
Spaces that Inspire Interaction
Whimsical design elements are central to the Brooklyn Studios experience. The bright yellow bath serves as an “Instagram-worthy” focal point, while motivational quotes throughout the building inspire residents. The green room offers a calming retreat, and the bean bag room provides a versatile space for movie nights or educational presentations, accommodating different lifestyles.
A Grand Entrance
The Brooklyn Studios lobby is designed to create an unforgettable first impression, featuring stunning waterfall lighting and a faceted façade that embodies modern sophistication. This striking entrance leaves a lasting impact on students from the moment they arrive.
Collaborative Excellence
Despite challenges, including coordination with contractors during renovation, Trend Group’s expertise and transparent communication ensured the project’s success. Helena’s collaboration with Trend Group was highly efficient, redefining student living through innovative design and thoughtful execution at Brooklyn Studios.
