The centre also includes a 6,000sqm area named El Brisolé with a large F&B offer, a 2,500sqm YO10 Sport gym a FNAC store.

“Torre Sevilla shopping centre brings together many of the current tendencies in retail,” said Broadway Malyan director Jorge Ponce.

“On one hand it showcases versatility in regenerating urban buildings originally conceived for a different use, in this case for workplace. It also demonstrates how the shopping centres are returning to the cities, experiencing very high pedestrian flood, instead of locations out of the city only accessible by car. And, finally, it shows how the retail is working as an anchor for the rest of the uses, in this case with hospitality and workplace in the tower and culture in the Caixa Forum.

“The design of the centre is a paradigm of the current tendencies in retail: open mall, the power of green and landscape and a significant focus in dining formats and terraces. Another important feature is the incorporation of a reduced format of traditional big-boxes such as Ikea, which has opened a store.

“With respect to the language and materials, the project has responded to the original César Pelli design for the complex with the vibrant needs of retail. The result is a well-balanced and contemporary solution that offers a memorable addition to the many charms of Seville”.
