STGLO MALL

Located on a steep and geometrically complex plot, the project takes the topographic challenge as its starting point. The building steps down following the natural shape of the terrain, creating a sequence of platforms that organize the different uses. At the intermediate level, a large green plaza emerges as the true heart of the complex a meeting point and a connector between levels. Below it lies the main supermarket and access areas; above, the restaurant, leisure, and retail spaces unfold, visually and functionally linked to this exterior plaza. The building’s envelope folds and detaches from the ground, creating shadows, entrances, and shopfronts that engage in dialogue with the surroundings. A system of exterior ramps and stairways allows the entire complex to be traversed continuously, connecting all levels and enhancing pedestrian flow. An architecture that transforms the slope into an opportunity turning the terrain’s unevenness into an active, accessible commercial landscape.
