Our challenge has been to rethink the 1.5-million-square-foot Glendale Galleria to create a new shopping experience that encompasses the most forward-looking concepts in retail design. We have completely transformed the mall into a vibrant destination enhancing the world-class shops and department stores.
One of the most prominent features is a new black stone runway that ramps through the exterior to the interior and diffuses into a distinctive pixilated floor pattern that reverberates throughout the mall. We have opened up sight lines by exposing and enhancing the sculptural beauty of the ceiling vaults, eliminated most of the brick for a more elegant feel, and created a stronger connection throughout the mall with escalator reconfiguration, ultimately achieving the goal of giving the Glendale Galleria customer a new and improved shopping experience.
