A new Nalchik Mall will be located on Shogentsukov Avenue. Now the territory of the future project consists of several divided sections. Subsequently, the territory will be merged into one, where a new lifestyle center will be built.
The building does not yet have a specific functional content, it is divided into zones: the first two floors will be occupied by retail, the third and fourth will be provided for offices, and on the top floor there will be a restaurant. Since we did not have a clear plan for filling the space, all premises had to be as versatile as possible so that any tenants could use them.
The architectural concept of Nalchik Mall in Nalchik is classical architecture that looks modern and timeless. We used an architectural universal - arches. They connect classics and modernity, making the building’s architecture both classical and contemporary.
The first and the second floors have a large glass area, the building looks more "open", "wide". This solution was used to house fashion boutiques and shops on the first floors. Large arched windows give passers-by a view of the clothing collection, merchandise and mannequins.
"Know-how" in organizing the work of shops on the first floors is having its own entrance. So tenants will not have to dependent on the operation of the shopping center.
When creating a planning solution for the business center, we adhered to the principle of flexible space. The premises can be easily transformed to suit any goals and objectives: one tenant can rent the entire floor and make an open space office in it, or several tenants can come and share the premises.
Terraces are actively used in the project - a typical architectural technique for the South. Terraces become an additional advantage for tenants; they can be used as a lounge area, as a space for events or a garden.
On the top floor, the facade is more "open" having wide windows from floor to the ceiling. This solution opens up new viewpoints for the city. A universal advantage for any business - whether it is a restaurant, a fitness club or an office.
