The first phase of Keyes Art Mile is the Trumpet building. An impressive contemporary space focused around local art and design galleries and showrooms, the building's vast atrium is curated as a gallery space and is also home to the cutting-edge digital art gallery TMRW. Upstairs there's a cluster of slick restaurants and bars, while chic design stores, cafés and the Bkhz Gallery open out onto a street flanked by wild olive trees.
Neighbouring the Trumpet building, at the landmark Circa and Everard Read gallery impressive temporary exhibitions by leading South African artists await.
Upstairs inside the Trumpet atrium is the pretty cafe and French patisserie L'Atelier. One floor up is Mesh Club, a sexy members-only club with its own chic cocktail bar, Mix that is open to the public. A gorgeous artistic space filled with an impressive collection of contemporary art, Mix also offers superb views over the suburbs and is a fabulous place to enjoy sundowners. Finally, one floor beyond on the rooftop is the quirky Asian restaurant Momo Kuro and David Higgs' ultra-stylish rooftop Marble grill restaurant.
