Jardim Zoológico - Maputo

This is a concept design done in association with Carlos Borges Arquitectos. The design brief asked for a 20,000m² covered mall in Maputo, Mozambique. The site is located next to a man-made lake in park like settings alongside the national zoo. The centre forms part of a multi-use development which will include a hotel and office park. The project has a strong sustainability focus, and includes a lifestyle area with restaurants that look onto an external amphitheatre and organic farmers' market.
