The construction of shopping centers CLOVER, and much later the Narayan were Examples of unbridled greed of the owners, who are only worried about filling the spaces of local structures, to thereby obtain the greatest possible profit. Or so they thought their owners, who to date (and after more than a decade) still have outlets that could not rent or sell.
In principle, their outward appearance does not look promising, as well as in stage I, it is a piece of 3-story structure, which moves in the shops thinking kind of match boxes, distributed along narrow corridors extremely linear and where the architectural solution with the use of the right angle, is present even in the soup.
The truth is, the Guiana appearance of ORINOKIA MALL provides a before and after in the design of building sites, without losing its business, serve as centers safe recreation for the people of Ciudad Guayana. The building of ALTAVISTA MALL 2 is the best example of that afterward.
Once it crosses the parking lot (which retains the same structure of phase I) the landscape of the mall (yes, yes, you can see the presence of an architect which seems to really work at home left without budgetary limits) is a feast for the eyes of visitors.
The hallways look huge at the moment (I guess in a few months will be saturated everywhere kiosks) and in fact I feel are much wider than the ORINOKIA. The use of colors throughout the architecture, reinforces that sense of spaciousness.
Although 2 / 3 of the mall is still empty, shows the presence of a well-lit and there are plenty of stairs both traditional and electric. Another thing that may be common for any visitor, but not for the people of Guyana (used to bad treatment) is the presence of air conditioning throughout the whole mall.
The most beautiful (and more successful) Mall is just the center. This is a large square, in a perfectly circular, which generates a skylight to force the rest of the story to acquire in a circular area. The skylight is topped with the presence of a large number of windows (also arranged circularly) whose upper edge is finished in an arc and right in the middle of the ceiling hangs a large chandelier with a modern design, which together with the windows, will give the place an air arabesque.
striking is the way it was resolved the lift. The architect placed small rectangular openings along the wall facing towards the square, topping it with a clock on top. When seen from afar, seemed like if it were a small skyscraper that starts from the base of the square and is limited by the edge of the illuminated ceiling.
The second floor is practically overrun by what is known in the area of \u200b\u200bthe fair. These small food franchises where, oddly enough, are not present the McDonalds, Burger King or Wendys. Guess one, that these international networks feel they are not ripe for further invittiendo in Venezuela, despite the fact that our president to invite anyone who wants to hear even a sunglasses factory in our country .
For now, this area looks very broad and does not transmit at all the feeling of being overwhelmed (so common these communal picnic) and this quite possibly the result of the large balcony is present in the area for the circular geometry that gives the place the square on the ground floor.
What I saw things I did not like? For the bathrooms. They are conspicuous by their absence, for the potential of the place. The few there are of a design, a design and dimensions as poor as Stage I. I remember when someone needed to go to the bathroom in stage I, went to the multiplex CINEX baths, the others were awful. Another thing I saw evil, are the stands. Not content with having to redistribute available to them, the spaces that define the position of each car, are so absurdly unrealistic, apparently to no one.
