Westside Shopping and Leisure Centre

Westside Shopping and Leisure Centre is an urban scale architectural project including 55 shops, 10 restaurants and bars, a hotel, a multiplex cinema, and an indoor water park with wellness center and housing. This mixed-use program radically reinvents the concept of shopping, entertainment and living. With its impressive location above Bern’s A1 highway and direct connection to train and transport networks, the 1.5 million square foot complex is a self-enclosed district with day and night facilities offering endless amenities and services Westside’s design concept aimed to create a public space with day and night facilities, a self-enclosed district offering endless amenities and services, almost like a city within a city. Westside is not only a landmark, but an urban organism which attracts the surrounding region, becoming a place of excursions, meetings, seminars, entertainment and leisure activities. The design concept integrates architecture and landscape in a manner which invites glimpses of the natural world into the usually hermetic world of a large urban shopping complex.
