We recently had the honor of attending the opening and plaque unveiling of the new National Nuclear Regulator Offices — a truly prestigious occasion.

The event was attended by the Deputy Minister of Electricity & Power, the CEO and CFO of the NNR, the CFO of Eskom, the Plant Manager of Koeberg Nuclear Power Station, representatives from the Western Cape Government Premier’s Office (Electricity Department), the City of Cape Town Mayor’s Office (Electricity Department), members of the local community, and the media.

Representing MLB Architects were Director Herman Joubert, Principal Agent André Vom Hagen, and Irwin Wales — the man who makes things happen.

Despite facing multiple hurdles — from pandemic-related delays to being revived without its original design lead — we’re proud to have seen this project through and to include it in our portfolio.

Originally designed by our late Director René Grubert, this building holds a particularly special place for us and stands as a testament to his vision and legacy.

A Pearl of Wisdom from MLB Director, Herman Joubert🔮

In honor of , which was observed earlier this month, we picked Herman's brain and discussed the role of architecture in shaping our world. Herman shared this gem:

“Architecture is an ancient craft which mirrors human evolution and civilizations’ progress. The responsibility of an architect is to be humble and work with clarity and purpose."

These words resonate deeply with our commitment to creating purposeful, human-centered designs that stand the test of time.
