About Beijing Huafa Mall Winkelcentrum

Beijing Huafa Mall is een winkelcentrum in het zuidwesten van Beijing, omgeven door verkeersverbindingen, universiteiten en woongebouwen. Het gebouw heeft zeven verdiepingen boven de grond en drie kelderverdiepingen. Verdiepingen één tot en met drie vormen een winkelgalerij. Verdiepingen vier tot en met zes bevatten een overdekte winkelstraat met restaurants en buitenterrassen. Verdieping zeven is een clubhuis voor leden. Gebogen vormen en aardetinten worden overal toegepast, en plantenbakken op elke verdieping zorgen voor een verbinding met de natuur. Het ontwerp biedt de ervaring van het dwalen door een bloemenbos.

Production Technology: The curved water-inspired shapes of the interior echoes with the architecture and assures a continuous holistic inside-out experience imprinting a dynamic vibe with its streamline design while maintaining the warmth and the comfort of the spaces with a relaxing earthy color palette. The public space in L6 is covered by a skylight, shaping a double height magnificent retail street that can be enjoyed all year round. Planters are evenly planted in every level to create a connection with nature.
Research: Before commissioning the project, a thorough market research in retail activities of the location was done and targeted customers were identified. The new generation, university students, young family with kids and mid to high income families will be the major customers. A new shopping experience will be something they are looking for. A fresh look, innovative and attractive selfie spots are to be created to magnetize them. Both architectural and interior design are developed with this mission.
Inspiration: The main design concept is to create two completely different retail experiences within the same mall. A contemporary warm and stylish mall on the first three levels, and an indoor ecological and cultural open retail street on the top three levels. The mood of the alfresco indoors retail street level is designed to be relaxing and casual with open shopfronts and dedicated alfresco spaces. The typical shopfront boundaries are purposely blurred, creating more spacious, fresh and open atmosphere.
Project Duration: The project design started in January 2019 and schematic design is completed in May 2019. The project location is in Beijing Fangshan district and the design is done in Hong Kong. Together with the residential portion of the site at south bound, the project is exhibited in a showroom in Beijing since June 2019. The construction of the retail mall is targeted to be completed in2021 and opened in 2022.
Operation Flow: Simple and clear circulation design are the major essence of this mall. Main entrances are located near the road junctions to facilitate ingress to the mall. On the first 3 levels, a double-loaded shop arcade with large voids is designed. Retail activities are enticed through visual connection of these important voids. Express escalators draw people from L1 to L4 directly, bringing them to another level of experience. Lifts are also provided directly from carpark to all retail arcade levels.
