Westgate

Holistic design, seamless integration

The Project

The holistic design combines both office and mall to integrate seamlessly with the surroundings. Its naturally ventilated fine grain retail network is filled with a delightful mix of public plazas, sky bridges, art trails, vertical green walls and lined with palm trees, for a vibrant, yet idyllic feel.

Not just a mall, it is also a community space

The Challenge

A major challenge addressed was making the naturally ventilated retail network comfortable for shoppers. A blend of passive and active designs, from the use of wind corridors and water features, to vertical planting and lush landscaping show the possibility of a new kind of retail typology in the tropical climate.
