Before designing this project we´ve visited and analyzed other similar spaces trying to find some errors that could be corrected. We found out that a basic error being committed was that most of these services only had one type of space. This design attitude ignored the variation of mood one fells during the day, or even if he walks there alone or with friends, needs a place to read a book or just wants to socialize. So, to bridge this flaw, we created three different environments so that the costumer can select the space that fits better to his or…

At Craft Group, we believe these districts are not simply zones on a map but cultural engines that will drive the Kingdom’s creative economy forward. Riyadh, the beating heart of this transformation, is leading the…
Hefei’s MixC commercial complex, nestled in the vibrant Tianhe district, has been a local retail favorite since it opened in 2015. But for years, its rooftop was left untouched—a barren stretch of concrete with overgrown weeds. Sensing untapped potential, CR Land, the developer behind MixC, decided it was time for a change.
