CONCEPT
Commercial Center,
located in
Porto Alegre, Brazil
People who go to the place may make use not only of the stores, but also of the open air space on one of the most upscale corners of Porto Alegre. It is so because the commercial center is projected seeking for the integration among the 12 stores and the street, making the connection between the indoor and outdoor areas possible. The place is 1.5m above street level, not conflicting visually with the parking lots. The elevation also provides more interesting views and protection to the stores as well as to the users who pass by the shopping gallery.
