Plaza Center Poland.
location: Poland, Torun
Center Plaza Toruń was built on the place of former speedway track Apator. Building consists of two separate parts: shopping mall and multi-storey car-park. Façades because of its huge surface were divided into smaller parts which are easier to percept by human sight.
Representative entrance opened in direction of the city is continued by rhythmical deposition of prefabricated, curved elevation panels. The whole structure became an architectural dominant visible from far perspective. In front of the entrance there was designed a town square with sitting places, plants and small architecture. Shopping-mall in 2013 was awarded the prize of “Building of the year” for years 2011-2012 which has been given by the mayor of Torun.
