Green-Roofed Retail Centers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Part-Dieu Commercial Retail Center will Focus on Biophilic Design

— March 3, 2016 — Business
While malls are often touted as being some of the biggest offenders when it comes to design, the Part-Dieu Commercial Retail Center looks to break this mold. Situated in Lyon, France, the commercial center redevelopment adds a beautiful facade and public green spaces into the mix.

Retail has become a notion synonymous with modern culture. As such, shopping centers are a fixed member of the city landscape. The Part-Dieu Commercial Retail Center looks to maintain this notion, but increase the aesthetic appeal with design elements that are forward-thinking.

The shopping center is the design work of MVRDV that previously did work on the Markthal in Rotterdam as well as the Chongwenmen M-cube in Beijing. The implementation and completion of the shopping center is not yet known.
Trend Themes
1. Biophilic Retail Centers - Designing retail centers with green spaces and natural elements to promote wellness and sustainability.
2. Forward-thinking Shopping Centers - Incorporating innovative design elements to enhance the modern shopping experience.
3. Aesthetically Pleasing Malls - Focusing on the visual design and appeal of malls to attract and retain customers.
Industry Implications
1. Retail Design and Construction - Exploring new ways to incorporate green spaces, biophilic elements, and innovative designs to meet the changing demands of consumers.
2. Sustainability and Green Roofing - Providing sustainable roofing solutions to commercial properties that can contribute to energy efficiency and promote eco-friendliness.
3. Urban Planning and Land Development - Creating more aesthetically pleasing and sustainable urban landscapes through innovative and green-focused design strategies.
