This year, TAF has collaborated with renowned creatives including Tiaan Nagel, Tonic Design, and garden designer Patrick Watson, who will bring an iconic urban green space to Hyde Park Corner.

Hyde Park Corner since 1969, when it opened as the first fully enclosed, decentralized shopping centre in South Africa, this benchmark of South African retail has remained current, relevant, and diverse. Constant re-invention through a series of considered updates both in terms of tenant offering and aesthetics, has been key in consistently offering its customers the benchmark which is synonymous with the Hyde Park Corner retail experience.
