该博物馆位于9,500平方米的定制设计空间内，分布在九层楼中，雕刻于历史悠久的粮仓综合体的纪念性结构中。自1990年以来停用的粮仓，曾是南非最高的建筑，现作为开普敦工业过去的纪念碑，通过Heatherwick Studio的改造焕发新生。
博物馆的展览厅和中央的中庭空间是从粮仓密集的细胞结构中雕刻而成，这些结构由四十二根管道组成，支撑着整个建筑。该项目包括6,000平方米的展览空间，设有80个展览厅，一个屋顶雕塑花园，先进的存储和保护区域，一个书店，一个餐厅、酒吧和阅览室。博物馆还将设有服装研究所、摄影中心、策展卓越中心、动态影像中心、表演实践中心和艺术教育中心。
Zeitz MOCAA的5亿南非兰特 “3000万英镑” 开发项目于2013年11月宣布，由V&A Waterfront和Jochen Zeitz合作创建，作为一个非营利公共文化机构，位于非洲最受欢迎的文化和历史中心之一的心脏地带。博物馆坐落在一个自然的历史性工作港口边缘，以标志性的桌山为背景，俯瞰海洋、城市盆地和山峰，V&A Waterfront每天吸引多达10万人。
The museum is housed in 9,500 sq metres of custom designed space, spread over nine floors, carved out of the monumental structure of the historic Grain Silo Complex. The silo, disused since 1990, stands as a monument to the industrial past of Cape Town, at one time the tallest building in South Africa, now given new life through the transformation by Heatherwick Studio.
The galleries and the atrium space at the centre of the museum have been carved from the silos’ dense cellular structure of forty-two tubes that pack the building. The development includes 6,000 sq metres of exhibition space in 80 gallery spaces, a rooftop sculpture garden, state of the art storage and conservation areas, a bookshop, a restaurant, bar, and reading rooms. The museum will also house Centres for a Costume Institute, Photography, Curatorial Excellence, the Moving Image, Performative Practice and Art Education.
The R500 million (£30 million) development of Zeitz MOCAA, announced in November 2013, has been created in a partnership between the V&A Waterfront and Jochen Zeitz, as a not-for-profit public cultural institution in the heart of one of most visited cultural and historical hubs in Africa. Set on the edge of a natural, historic working harbour, with the iconic Table Mountain as its backdrop, and sweeping views of the ocean, city bowl and mountain peaks, V&A Waterfront attracts up to 100,000 people a day.
