WHY YOU SHOULD WIN THE PROJECT IN COMMERCIAL CATEGORY
The approach, study and execution of the executive project Plaza Zavaleta has as a priority the dignity of the user respecting routes, dimensions and views through each space of the plaza, resulting in particular environments that underlie the application of high quality materials innovation and cutting edge technology Similarly, in the area of commercial premises a final finish is proposed based on fine flattened surfaces and paints with ecological properties.

The morphology and design of the project were sought through organic movements in roofs, walkers as well as the application of materials and textures in warm tones creating a particular environment which can provide a unique experience to each visiting user More than satisfying a commercial demand in the area, the project seeks to have a social impact, taking family interaction and coexistence as a principle, perceiving a feeling of dynamism and comfort
