Extension of the existing commercial gallery and  its parking.

Creation of a light, fluid and open restauration area, which represents 25% more than the total surface of the center; and an increase in the commercial area.

These programms are connected by a very bright walkway, which leaves plenty of room for natural light.

The chosen typology similar to that of a street (different store heights, changes of thythm, etc.) lets indirect, soft and natural light pass over the different volumes on the stores, accentuating the fluidity of the space.
