Lendava Retail Center

The aim of the project was to develop of a scheme for a client that has previously not invested in shopping malls. First phase of the project required development of distinguishing structural and visual elements, which were then applied to the Lendava project. The structure houses a supermarket, a technical store, a series of smaller retail spaces, restaurants and cafés, and a central mall. The main elevation is richly structured, clearly articulating the diversity of programme in individual sections rather than the structure as whole. Remaining three facades are finished in concrete, echoing the building's primary purpose. Identical overhangs span the lengths of both main and back façade, the front one inviting and protecting visitors, the back one protecting delivery and manipulation. Together they unify the scheme and accentuate it with a floating horizontal echoing the plains of Prekmurje.
