SHOPPING MALL

​

​

About the project

​

It is always exciting when we are asked to come up with an unconventional design for a mall. For this shopping mall in Abu Dhabi, Shawa Architecture chose to use large overlapping masses made mostly of large glass pieces, and set them within an extensive solid frame.

​

Concept

​

A lot of focus in this project went into showcasing the contrast of light shiny glass material and the heavy solid material of the frame. The entrance of this building is especially distinctive as it is exactly at the gap between the two huge overlapping masses.
