Shanghai Baowu University Renewal

As a campus built in 1978, in order to adapt to the requirements of campus development, the owner needs to update the campus and supplement functions such as commercial facilities and accommodation. The project demolished the original swimming pool and built a new commercial facility and two dormitory buildings.  The west side of the campus is adjacent to the Malu River, with lush green trees on both sides and clear river water. But in the current situation, blocked by walls, the value of the waterfront is not felt on campus. Although the Yuepu community around the Baowu campus has a relatively dense population, it is surrounded by factories and has no commercial facilities in the community. To this end, we suggest that the owner use... More

Harmay Shenzhen by Aim Architecture derives from the industrial character of the city

Part of a new large-scale commercial area within the growing city, Harmay designed by Aim Architecture, seeks inspiration from raw brutality and the industrial nature of the ever-changing urban landscape of Shenzhen.  Wen Studio The use of intricate piping systems as a focal point elevates them as an object, making them appear as capillaries beneath the megastructure's smooth exterior. While terminal tubes are dispersed and gathered to form an interactive interface, galvanised steel pipes encircle the space to act as a boundary. To draw customers, the outdoor public area is linked to the inner commercial entity via a narrow and deep space, revealing a naturally linear organisation.  Bowen Gu While some of t... More

Sapphire 83

Sapphire 83 is a distinct example of a neighbourhood shopping complex that gives the user an opportunity to ‘shop while walking.’ The project is a combination of multiple amenities, including a Cinema hall run by INOX, 120 service apartments, almost 100 retail outlets and numerous family restaurants. As sustainability concerns are taking predominance and the need for safer public spaces is rising, our approach towards commercial spaces needs to provide a relevant solution. One of the unique models to explore is reflected in Sapphire's design language, straying away from the conventional malls and instead exploring the open-haat typology, thus promoting a sustainable design – access to multiple retail stores and safe open s...

Branimir Mingle Mall

Branimir Centre in the heart of Zagreb, opened in 2003, has for years been associated with the cinema located within the mall. However, the excellent position of the Centre as well as the country’s most visited cinema had not been used to their full potential as the venue did not offer content to attract and retain visitors beyond the cinema screenings for which reason the centre’s new owner, the Austrian Supernova Group, decided to take action to reposition the mall. Supernova decided to draw upon Brigada’s creative resources and so we have, together with the creative agency Señor, developed a new positioning strategy of the centre, its visual identity and interior design. Going to the mall does not have to be an... More

Foodstacja

The new gastronomic zone in the Pasaż Grunwaldzki shopping center in Wrocław, designed by MIXD, is referred to as "thoroughly Wrocław". The inspiration for her project was Wrocław, its history and iconic places as well as  90s nostalgia.

The Pasaż Grunwaldzki shopping centre, which belongs to EPP, is located in the center of Wrocław, at the crossroads of routes that the inhabitants of this city cross every day: teenagers, students, families with children, retirees.
