Abi Mall
The largest shopping and entertainment center in the city
About
Abi Mall is a new shopping and entertainment center in the city of Vladimir, which will be part of a new urban area on the way to Suzdal. Our goal was to develop a modern, unique design based on the idea of circular perfection to create an atmosphere of endless shopping possibilities. The Abi Mall project offers not only a variety of stores but also entertainment spaces, making it an attractive destination for visitors of all ages. We aim to create a comfortable and inspiring environment where everyone can find something for themselves, enjoying the process of shopping and relaxation.
Architecture
The mall will provided retail and catering facilities, a cinema, a multifunctional center, an entertainment and leisure zone and an office block. The building occupies a site located at the intersection of two large transport ways working both in the city scale and in the scale of long-distance transport links. The shape of the shopping center is based on the ring as an ideal figure. The intersection of the rings in the plan forms the layout of the object, creating a streamlined volume that allows you to escape the traditional perception of the main and secondary facade. Particular attention is paid to the visual perception of the object from a distance. This purpose is achieved by the landing of the object on the site, the multiple silhouettes of the building, emphasized entrance zones and the media facades. The composition of the building consists of compound cylindrical volumes. For the functional and technological reasons, some walls are straightened. Such a transition emphasizes the entrance zones in the “round” parts of the object and simplifies the minor fragments of the facade. This forms landmarks for visitors.
Interiors
All 5 entrance areas have significant area of glazing, creating a visual connection between the exterior and interior, providing a good level of natural lighting and a presentable view of the entrance areas. The combination of different materials meets the complex geometry and color scheme of the entrances and strengthens them.
Landscape
The northern entrance is focused on the main public space of the shopping center which is passing into the park. It will provide pedestrian connection of the center with the future residential area in the north. An amphitheater with a dry fountain and space for events is planned on this square.
