Budhouse Group specialists have completed work on the design project of the Yessa shopping center (the working title of the “Zebra” shopping center). The design will be based on the theme of the city of Odessa, but the architects will convey it in a very unusual way. The well-known images and symbols of the city will be presented in animated and cartoon-oriented, family-oriented.
“It is very important for us to create such a shopping center in which the main symbols of Odessa will harmoniously unite. We are glad that they will not be boring, but in a new way interesting for residents and visitors of the city. We want visitors of our shopping and entertainment center to not only make the necessary purchases in the complex, but also to spend their leisure time comfortably. - says Maxim Gavryushin, commercial director of Budhouse Group. - Our potential visitors are families with children, since the “Yessa” shopping center will be located in the largest residential area of the city. The complex will host the largest children's entertainment center in Odessa, a family cinema and a bowling alley, as well as a clothing / shoe stores for children, toys.”
“Creating the interior, the architects tried to become attached to the name of the future shopping and entertainment center. I wanted to create a recognizable interior, but at the same time, get away from the presentation of the image of Odessa in the forehead. For us it is important to convey the atmosphere and vitality of Odessa, - says the architect Alexander Manakova. - The space of the TEC is divided into levels symbolizing the space under water, above water and the sky. This technique simplifies the visual orientation in space, and so it will be easy for visitors to remember where and in what place of the center they are. In addition, great importance is given to recreation areas. The 32-meter atrium is a concert platform with a grand piano, a podium for the demonstration of new collections of clothes, a fountain and recreation areas. Shopping galleries are decorated with places of rest and greenery islands. In the design of the food court square they tried to combine the seashore, the public garden and the courtyards of Odessa.
Opening of the TEC “Yessa” is scheduled for 2021 The total area of the complex will be 51 thousand square meters, rental - 39 thousand square meters. Parking lot - 700 cars. Recall that to date, contracts have been signed with a number of anchor tenants: the “Silpo” food supermarket, “Сomfy” household appliances, “LuckyStrike” bowling club (16 lanes), “Miracle Park” children's entertainment center, and “Sport Life” fitness club.
