Concept
Rising 85m above the city of Sétif in Algeria, the new “Park Mall” complex, is a new urban landmark in the city’s landscape. The hotel and adjoining complex, together, provide the city with the most up-to-date facilities for hotel accommodation, shopping and business. The resolutely pro-active approach towards environmental issues adopted by the “PARK MALL” complex shaped the project right from first design sketches, and sets a precedent for future development in the city.
