Shanghai Vanke Ginza Shopping Mall

MVRDVShanghai, China Mainland2019

The proposal for the Shanghai Vanke Shopping Mall takes into consideration two influential legacies: its historical and pregnant heritage from the French Concession and the structural and mechanical inheritance from the new metro station. Both legacies emerge timidly, yet pressingly: the historical past appears in the shape of the few preserved original buildings surrounding a void site, while the structural inheritance appears in the shape of the metro entrances, the imposing ventilation shafts and the column stubs emerging from the underground.
