“Brutal Simplicity of Thought” is the philosophy of M&C Saatchi Abel and one that could well serve as the impetus behind the interior design of the advertising agency’s new Johannesburg premises – number nine, 8th Street, Houghton.

Designed by M Architects, the building’s graphic black-and-white exterior mirrors its sleek, modern interior, which was dressed by Greg Gamble, Philippe van der Merwe and Alicia Beetge of Tonic – the new space beautifully showcases the agency’s extensive collection of contemporary South African art.
