What is the most noticeable feature of the interiors?
A key piece in our Mall of Africa store is the wooden Siren Wall. This piece
was designed by Starbucks and depicts the Starbucks siren’s hair in motion
and explains the history and story of the brand, from its origins in Seattle.
Cape Town-based artists, Kurt Pio is responsible for the painted art on the
wall. The piece celebrates our heritage, our values and long history with
coffee through the craftsmanship of local artists. In our Rosebank store it
would be the Copper Wall artwork. The artwork captures the atmosphere
of Pike Place Market in Seattle, the neighbourhood where we opened our
