GOALS:

• CREATE A NEW DESTINATION, A NEW CENTER WHERE THE NEW CINEMA INTERFACES WITH DINING & SHOPPING.
• CREATE STRONG CONNECTIVITY WITH THE WHOLE OAKBROOK CENTER.
• CREATE A NEW “ENTERTAINMENT” IDENTITY AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE CENTER.
• CREATE AN EXPERIENCE THAT IS INVITING & OPEN, AND SPACES THAT ARE DYNAMIC AND TIMELESS.

The concept at the main entrances is to create a glowing glass box that draws the shopper’s attention to the mall. When approaching the mall from the street, shopper’s focus is immediately drawn towards the lanterns, as it
stands out from the rest of the building due to its increased brightness. Downlights in the canopies will further emphasize this visual hierarchy by highlighting the main entrance. The uplighting of landscape features further
establishes a safe, comfortable environment.
