PROGRAM: RETAIL - FACADE RENOVATION
SIZE: 7,600 m2
COST: CONFIDENTIAL
STATUS: ON GOING (2020)
TEAM: Joaquin Vaquero, Begoña de Andrés, Christian Álvarez (PL), Christian Maier, Alba Martínez
“Citymall” is an existing mall in Saint Petersburg that consists of three parts;
a hypermarket, a shopping centre and a Leroy Merlin. Currently they’re completely dissonant
and look like three separate buildings put together. The main objective of the Citymall facade refurbishment
is to bring together these three parts as a whole, by the use of a skin.
The skin is made of lamelles which have different densities to break the scale,
produce shadows and protect an otherwise flat plain and exposed facade.
Standardized facade systems are put in place to optimize costs and timing dew to commitments with the client.
