project scope

Ergolain implemented the vision of the project clients and the architect in the common spaces – created non-standard furniture and furniture systems for sitting, relaxing, and chatting, and provided exclusive metal and concrete pots of impressive size for the vegetation, which is abundant in this facility. Black openwork and wicker rope lamps are also part of the project implemented by Ergolain.

We made triangular benches with rounded corners for individual seating and repeating plant pots for plants. A bench of a similar shape runs around the ropes on the second floor, and there is also an information center of a recognizable shape.

The star-shaped common seating area on the second floor with rounded corners, which can be transformed into a stage if necessary, is distinguished not only by its curled shape, but also by its complex construction, size, and unusual growing trees in the middle.

Ergolain has implemented the vision of the clients and the project architect for a children’s playground on the third floor of the shopping center. In the installed playground, children will be able to play in two UFO houses, similar to the habitats of space inhabitants. The large house, standing on six legs, has a ladder that is convenient to climb on and climb inside, and then slide down. The smaller house is intended for the smallest entertainers who do not yet want to get hot, but prefer to play quietly in a space environment. In both houses, children will find soft cubes from which they can build towers, spaceships or other dream structures in the form of shapes.

On the third floor, you will find several terraces with loungers that create the impression of endless summer. These spaces – from the floor to the loungers – form a seamless furniture system, when the furniture merges with the floor, and the lamps are the triangular accents that have been seen before. Next to it is a completely different seating area for those who eat. The upholstered systems, separated by wooden partitions, visually create a back – at the same time a feeling of coziness and security.

The family and children’s room stands out not only for its size, but also for its exceptional approach to the needs of families with small children. Parents will be able to comfortably enter the cozy, bright room with strollers, warm up food for children, change babies on spacious changing tables, and take a breather, sitting on upholstered furniture. You can feed or put the little ones to sleep in private rooms equipped in this room, separated by curtains. By the way, there is an integrated table for feeding and high chairs for children in the wall of this room. We covered the walls of the room with panels, and with LED lighting we made the room cozy, where you can feel at home.

We also made storage cabinets, which we placed in different places in the shopping center.
