corners of the site and introducing walkway links between , along which the smaller retail offerings are placed to create a continuous shopping experience and work environment .
The Dainfern Square development , however , introduces three further layers to the strip mall typology , making the project ’ s arrangement quite unique . The first is the surface parking square which pulls all the building elements together . An open mall link is introduced behind the first
layer of retail which complements the traditional covered mall and creates a more vibrant outdoor shopping and dining experience . With no entrance doors , consumers move unobstructed from the square of surface parking into the heart of the centre which flows into both open and internal mall areas . Lastly , the office component on the first floor gives scale to the buildings and creates large double volume entrances as well as animating the area with constant activity .
