ALL UNDER ONE ROOF
A. Out-of-town shopping malls may be in decline, but in inner cities from New York to Hong Kong new malls are booming. And many are blending seamlessly into the urban fabric. One example is a birdlike structure called the Oculus which is nowadays the focus of the World Trade Centre district devastated on 9/11. The Oculus's unusual architecture beckons from afar. From the outside, it reminds you of a bird or a dinosaur skeleton. But the Oculus is more than a piece of striking architecture. It is a popular tourist attraction which also functions as a mall, with more than a hundred stores.

C. In the early 2000s, when enclosed malls lined only with stores were the standard, the architect Chris Law proposed the first "open city" concept. Beijing's central business district was chosen as the site for this innovation. Law injected his design with a heavy dose of public space, including sidewalks and trees that would shade the pedestrian outdoor space. He laid out the shops and restaurants around two distinct plazas – one brimming with an interactive water feature and a massive screen to show televised events, and the other for a quiet reading session over a cappuccino.
D. Rather than setting out a detailed blueprint for the whole complex, Law created a master plan with a design framework for other architects to fill in, making it appear as if the complex had developed organically – "just like cities do". Later, the developer also entrusted Law with a design for another outdoor retail development in Chengdu. Since it was located near an ancient temple, Law respectfully designed structures with timber portal frames to match the cultural heritage of the district, laying out the stores and restaurants along intimate, tree-lined lanes.
E. Another place which has recently experienced the innovative weaving of malls into the urban fabric is Hong Kong. Most of the city's three hundred shopping centres do not sit on asphalt parking lots, but on subway stations and underneath skyscrapers. Hong Kong's transit provider is also a real-estate developer, and has capitalized on the value created by its subway stops. Thousands of people live, work and play in those high-rise megastructures, which include dwellings, offices and leisure facilities, and malls are deliberately placed on the intersection of all pedestrian flows, which makes them, by design, impossible to miss.
