An American-style shopping mall came into being 50 years ago in Geneva, western Switzerland. Since it was opened in 1971 it has been extended three times to create more space. Today it is home to 120 businesses, 15 restaurants, 13 cinema screens and a bowling centre, covering a total surface area of 50,000 m2. At present, the interior is undergoing a comprehensive facelift which will be completed in 2021 to commemorate its 50th anniversary.
A new glass roof delivers just the right lighting to the heart of the shopping mall. As a visual highlight, the architects had the notion of Wall Claddings with a banana wood look. For this vision, Jayminton supplied an appropriate metal wall cladding in a special version of its S7 Ceiling system. It features an eye-catching, high-calibre and very accurate GRAPHICS printed pattern with a banana wood look.
