Commercial Center by Carlos Janeco
How do you see a commercial center in your head? Is it big? Is it small? Well, either way you can be right. So today, we bring you a brilliant design of a commercial center which is basically inspired by the buildings in North Africa and which were influenced by a Roman courtyard. Read on and enjoy!
This project was inspired by the North Africa buildings with the influence of the Roman courtyard of the houses of wealthy families. It was decided to suspend the social area of the commercial center, freeing up ground floor for car parking and warehouse supermarket. The central courtyard is located on the first floor and serves as a visual axis of all the shops,and it is used for events and open-air tours. On the top floor is located a gym with open-air pool releasing the 2nd floor to shop-store and restaurants. This project took a record time of 9 days, and it was present on scheduled time to the final client.
