Mall Plaza Vespucio Aires represents a major expansion and face lift to this Santiago shopping mall. As the focal point of the interior, tvsdesign has created a lush garden court capped by a bold glass roof structure. The project vision is to attract a new upscale tenant and clientele mix by the creation of a large day lit winter garden designed to provide customers a relaxing “spa like” shopping environment. Floating cafe living rooms and specialty retail are woven together with sculptural landscape including a cascading stream. Sweeping roof lines and curvilinear forms bring a new modern image to the mall’s exterior. This, along with the addition of a new covered walkway, help to unify the building and offers an enhanced pedestrian experience.
This 15,000 sm major expansion adds a distinctive new two level fashion district to this highly successful mall in Santiago, Chile. The project is developed by Mall Plaza, owner of eight large shopping centers in Chile and continues a long term multi-project relationship tvsdesign has with the developer.
