Today, the commercial landscape space has not only created a pure shopping atmosphere, but will also become an urban park with participation, interaction and happiness. The design aims to create a children-themed commercial complex with the most user-friendly design.The venue is located in the CBD core of Taihu New City, Wujiang District, Suzhou, Jiangsu Provence, close to the main road, linking the subway entrance and exit. The project is China Resources’ first shopping center in Suzhou and the 40th shopping center project in China. The design intention is to create a thematic landscape space that fits with each other, and integrates the symbolic, thematic, display, fun, and linkage into one commercial landscape space.
At the beginning of the project, starting from the commercial shopping place, a large area of multifunctional parking space on the ground was reserved. With in-depth thinking about the surrounding environment and needs of the site, the design hopes to give the site more public space attributes, let it have a relationship with people, with a more humanized design, so that more people can enter into it, becoming a high Theme city business park with participation and experience.
Starting from the lines of the building, the project extracts the concept of “the intersection of all things”, takes the island as the design inspiration, uses the blue of the sea water as the keynote, adopts modern, concise and smooth lines, opens the space, and creates a vibrant and interesting children’s city park.
Children’s Theme Park
Blue, pure and pleasant, with a little lively escape. The large area of blue has become the focal point of this business, reminiscent of the sea and the sky, just like being immersed in the endless quiet sea water, comfortable and relaxing. The entire area of the children’s theme park is about 1200 square meters. The interactive device enhances the vividness of the scene. It comes with the “online celebrity” attribute and becomes a memory point of the entire venue.
In the site, the elevation difference is used to create interesting micro terrain space, with ups and downs and rich space changes. Encourage children to explore and study here, and play their infinite imagination. There are interactive climbing grass slope, interesting seesaw, slide, interactive device and other physical and mental facilities for children’s activities, so that children’s nature of exploration and climbing can be fully released.
On the square, the roundabout runway, blue and gray plastic mats are put together to create a space of vitality, interest and creativity. Parents are also encouraged to interact with them and have a good family time together.
Entrance Plaza
The main entrance square, the main interface facing the city, is also an important crowd gathering and distributing place. Combining with spirit fortress, art construction and characteristic water drop, it creates a marked main entrance space. Combining with the design concept of “Vientiane intersection”, the pavement uses linear pavement to guide the flow of people and gather at the main entrance of the mall. Pavement lines follow the visual field in vertical arrangement, dark and light color parallel arrangement, with the rhythm beauty of space-time continuity.
