Idea of design

We have this client who developed almost one million residential in this area who brought rich life style for this project. This project would be the first retail/mixed-use project for them to provide supportive retail-mix for the community they developed. The program included a community scale shopping mall, a lifestyle street, some anchor stores, hotel, SOHO tower and multiple connection to its residential plot.

This project is targeting at the top one retail project for the whole area and set to be a city level case.  This project will also provide hundreds of jobs for the city and contribute to the taxation sector. The power of a proper designed retail complex will be beneficial for the people who lived in a 3rd tier city of China and have chance to experience something new.
We have filly utilized the height difference of the site  and creating connections between the residential at its left side and the retail part. The vertical parking garage has also been considered in this arrangement.
