Nis, Serbia<br />

Forum shopping centre is located in the<br />

city centre of Nis and covers a total area<br />

of 16,000m2 over 6 levels which are<br />

split into 3 retail floors, 2 offices and an<br />

underground car park.<br />

The building represents an important<br />

innovation for the city of Nis, not only for<br />

its enhanced architectural appearance,<br />

which stands out for its compactness and<br />

simplicity, but for the commercial content<br />

RETAIL<br />

WORKPLACE<br />

enclosed within the new Laminam façade<br />

yet conspicuous and clearly visible from<br />

the busy pedestrian street.<br />

Prior to our intervention this was a large<br />

grey monolith housing a communist era<br />

department store and since Nis was used<br />

to underground markets, this project<br />

proposes a new shopping formula to the<br />

city, modernising the retail and revitalising<br />

an outdated and run-down urban area.<br />
