Rethink Repurpose Refresh


Placemaking for a Modern World Good design can meet the challenges posed by a dynamic and changing world. We design at every scale and at every stage in the process of placemaking, from visioning to briefing, design, delivery and operation. The places we create are distinct; social, natural, useful and beautiful — a reflection of humanity. The practice has grown to over 1,300 people operating from a collaborative network of city studios, all creative hubs connected to the cities and regions they serve. Our retail portfolio includes projects which range from complex new builds and infill extensions to the refurbishment and renewal of existing shopping centres.


Rethink The challenge of internet shopping, the use of social media and new shopping habits has led to a greater than ever emphasis on experiential factors to attract visitors. The old model of a shopping centre anchored by a department store is now becoming outdated, requiring new ways to attract customers with memorable places for food and beverage, leisure and cultural attractions as well as retail with authentic and engaging architecture and spaces. At BDP we provide imaginative and innovative solutions for rethinking buildings and spaces incorporating cutting edge ideas on retail / leisure formats, utilising smart technology and bringing thought leading sustainability solutions.


Meadowhall Refurbishment Location Sheffield, UK Client British Land Completion 2017

The UK’s fourth largest shopping centre has been transformed into a contemporary destination. Embracing Sheffield’s steel legacy, our proposal is inspired by the process of making steel, which is interpreted in abstract ways. The original centre was cluttered with impeded sightlines, having four zones that lacked distinction, poor legibility and orientation. We therefore designed distinct districts with different mall finishes and environments.



The Leisure Hall, Meadowhall Location Sheffield, UK Client British Land Cost £300m

Completion 2021

The aim of The Leisure Hall is to create an exceptional regional destination, transforming the face, perception and journey to a reinvented and enlivened Meadowhall. The proposals involve reappropriating the existing deck parking and grafting on a major new leisure and restaurant led extension.


East Kilbride Location Glasgow, UK Client Orion

Cost £12.5m

Completion 2016

The leisure hub builds on the existing town centre development which was constructed in 1987. It retains the nine screen cinema, ice rink, library, restaurants and leisure facilities. Our approach was to strip back the building to its structural frame and floor slabs so that new forms could be developed within the space. New shops, restaurants and a high level climbing wall were built as part of the scheme.


Aleja Bielany Location Wroclaw, Poland

Client InterIKEA Centre Polska Cost Confidential Completion 2015

The retail catering and leisure extension to the newly refurbished shopping centre in Bielany, Poland, is crafted of an architecture and internal design that is a direct response to local landmarks, geography and culture. Facades are inspired by rock formations and resulting patterns are used to generate massing, geometries and patterns in the architecture.



Les 3 Fontaines Location Paris, France

Client Hammerson France Cost €133.7m

Les 3 Fontaines is a major renovation and extension of a leading shopping centre located 30 km west of Paris, in Cergy. We designed a bright new mall extending the existing area by an extra 26,500 m2 of GLA. We proposed a vibrant new food court engaging the pedestrian realm of the town centre and also including the reconfiguration of 3,700 car park spaces.


MEGA Teply Stan Location Moscow, Russia Client INGKA Centres Completion 2021

This project is an extension of the MEGA Teply Stan Shopping Centre, a 70.000m2 GLA development which comprises commercial space and a new Winter Garden that will position the centre as a key city attraction.


MEGA Khimki Location Moscow, Russia Client INGKA Centres Cost TBC

Completion 2021

This is a major refurbishment of an existing mega shopping centre in Russia. We were commissioned to implement INGKA’s meeting place strategy throughout the interior spaces and to complete the external renovations and entrances.


Guildhall Shopping Centre Location Exeter, UK

Client Aviva Investors Cost £11.8m

Completion 2016

The project, for Aviva Investors, involved the refurbishment and reconfiguration of the historic Higher Market and Ambulatory together with redevelopment of the High Street entrance and redesign of the public realm. Now branded as Queen Street Dining the new A3 units have consolidated the centre’s food and beverage offering which is at the centre of the city’s new food quarter. Queen Street Dining has attracted some excellent brand names to the development.


Oldham Town Hall Location Oldham, UK

Client Oldham Council Cost £35m

Completion 2016

The revitalised Grade II Oldham Town Hall has been brought back to life with a seven screen cinema, six restaurants, cafe and new public realm.



Paddington Lawn

Location London, UK

Client Network Rail Cost £13m

Completion 2017

Paddington Lawn is the first commission under the Network Rail retail architects’ framework. Our vision creates a retail and catering destination that fully integrates with the magnificent volume of Brunel’s famous station structure. The customer experience is improved to provide an elegant piece of placemaking with a tenant mix that caters for the ‘grab and go’ right through to quality dining and drinks in a unique and memorable setting.


Trade Rows of Gum Location Moscow, Russia Client Trading House of GUM Cost Confidential Completion 2004

The famous GUM store in Moscow with its series of glazed arcades was restored and modernised so that it once again regained its status as one of Russia’s premier shopping centres and restored one of the country’s most important pieces of architecture.


Repurpose Retail destinations are experiencing a significant change in demand for space and the value of existing property requiring the repurposing of space for other more valuable uses. This can mean conversion of department stores into leisure or pop up retail; car parks into residential or basements into food markets. Historic buildings also have great potential to be reimagined for new uses and make wonderful spaces for experiencing the blend of new and old. Repurposing shipping containers to offer pop up retail or food and leisure destinations, such as Boxpark, provides imaginative and cost effective places for people to meet and share experiences in an exciting, dynamic space as an alternative to online.


Paddington Box

The concept is for the appropriation of a redundant 100,000ft2 box beneath British Land’s Paddington Central campus to create a fantastic food and leisure destination with a unique perspective over the rail tracks. The Box is accessed via a lifted landscape plain that creates an entrance route into a new public amphitheatre.

Underline Location Moscow, Russia Client Ingkha IKEA Cost £2.5m

Completion 2018

A former car park has been modified to create a pop up department store and flexible retail and exhibition space. This is an example of how many centres are looking at meanwhile uses for underutilised space in a fast, cost efficient way. The use of graphics and architectural lighting enhances the customer experience and identity.



Boxpark Croydon Location London, UK Client Boxpark

Cost Confidential Completion 2016

Boxpark opened its second scheme in Croydon, South East London. Sited immediately next to East Croydon station, it consists of 96 modified shipping containers and provides a home for over 40 food and beverage units, taking the thinking from the original Boxpark scheme in Shoreditch, and developing it to a new level.



Boxpark Wembley

Location London, UK Client Boxpark

Cost Confidential Completion 2018

Boxpark Wembley is the third Boxpark and represents a significant step forward for the company by creatively interpreting the portal framed shed. The central space can be configured to cater for a huge variety of functions including a food hall serving high quality street food, a venue for a 2,500 capacity rave, Bingo Lingo, Fight Klub boxercise classes, pop up cinema, Christmas markets, Baby Loves Disco, and a match-day fanzone.



Music Boxes Location Salford Quay, UK

Client MIF Creative, BBC, Salford City Council and Abu Dhabi Festival Completion 2011

A mini city of shipping containers was kitted out as miniature performance spaces, specially adapted recording and animation studios or interactive installations allowing the very young to explore a fantasy world of sound and music. 78 containers were stacked up to three high in an irregular pattern to create an elliptical, enveloping shape, to replicate the geometry of sound and music.


Competition Concept Proposal This design proposal is for the repurpose and extension of a late 1990s shopping centre. A proposed aperture in the facade allows it to open up views towards the city for the new food destination. The proposal also includes the repurposing of the former DIY superstore into a flexible fashion and leisure hub.



REFRESH Refresh All shopping centres will become tired or outdated at some point during their lifetime and will need some intervention to maintain customer interest and to meet the demands of tenants. We provide design solutions that can bring dramatic results from simple, focussed interventions such as entrances, lighting, digital signage and wayfinding, food concepts and applied finishes. These solutions can be focussed on often small budgets and the need to construct quickly with the minimum of disruption to existing users.


Westgate Oxford

Location Oxford, UK

Client Westgate Oxford Alliance (Land Securities and The Crown Estate) Cost £440m

Completion 2017 The Westgate masterplan includes the internal remodelling of the existing Westgate Shopping Centre. It forms the main entrance to the extended centre leading to an elegant vaulted arcade. The work included a refurbished public library, new retail and leisure space.



Nike Town Location London, UK Client Nike

Completion 2011

Our brief for the design was to help Nike Town London become the pinnacle retail destination for the Nike brand in the world. Integral to the impact of this design were three spectacular chandeliers constructed from Nike clothing to act as visual merchandising. Following the success of this collaboration in London, we were commissioned to develop a similar concept for the flagship Nike Paris store in the Champs-Elysees.



Nike Town Location London, UK Client Nike

Completion 2010

By taking a fresh look at London’s architecture we came up with a radical mix of references for Nike Town, from a red brick football building to a futuristic glass golf pavilion. We worked with fullscale mock-ups to create a unique ‘town crier’ messaging device that appears as a centrepiece floating in Nike Town square, regularly erupting with sound and light.


Ealing Broadway Location London, UK

Client British Land Completion 2016

The lighting design for the shopping centre was driven by a desire to create bright soffits during the day with a smooth transition to restrained colour variable features at night. The external colonnade features a fibre optic ‘starry sky’ system, halogen quality LED downlights and grazing light to brick columns – elements that combine to create a pleasant evening ambience for the restaurants and bars along its length.


Market Gates Location Great Yarmouth, UK

Market Gates was a light refresh based a restricted budget. We focused our attention on new lighting, graphics, wayfinding, ceilings and simplifying the floor patterns. Major shopfront were upgraded and key tenants were attracted as a result. The centre was subsequently sold to new investors.


Competition Concept Proposal Our concept proposal transformed this 1990s shopping centre’s oversized floor to floor levels into a dramatic and enticing vertical experience by turning the structural elements into sculptural pieces.

NODES / EXISTING


Competition Concept Proposal We undertook a vision strategy to refresh and update the interiors and entrances for White Rose shopping centre. We created design solutions carefully aligned to proposed budgets and provided options ranging from minimal intervention to more dramatic solutions involving changes to building services and tenant signage.
