Shanghai Jiuguang center is located at the inner ring region of north Shanghai Jingan
District, next to the Daning Tulip Park which has an area of 680,000㎡. It is a complex
building with gloss floor area of 350,000 sqm, consisting of a shopping center with
mainly affordable and luxury brand stores, Jiuguang Department Store, and two 100m
high office towers. With over 180,000㎡ of commercial space from two basement levels
to six above ground levels, it is one of the largest shopping mall opened in Shanghai in
2021.
In the semi-enclosed commercial building, volumes of different sizes and different
materials are stacked on top of each other, and the outdoor atrium space in the center
is open in all directions to the commercial space, reducing the sense of intimidation
and creating a space that resembles a mountain stream meandering through a valley.
The exterior elevation is a combination of geometrically divided surfaces, contrasted
with the soft impression of the interior.
A sense of openness and connectedness, which is not found in conventional boxshaped
shopping mall will make the experience in the retail space a part of the activity
in the urban public pace.
