The reimagined container lifestyle centre is making a mark in Johannesburg, providing a space for artists to showcase their authentic concepts and artworks freely, while also offering a diverse range of shopping and dining experiences to suit everyone's needs.

The idea behind 27 Boxes is simple yet innovative. The centre is made up of recycled shipping containers, which have been transformed into an array of unique retail stores, restaurants, and art spaces. 

The use of shipping containers as building blocks creates an interesting and eye-catching façade, giving visitors an experience unlike anything else in Johannesburg. 

The containers also provide an environmentally friendly solution to the problem of urban sprawl and overcrowding, as they can be easily relocated and repurposed.
