CHENGDU, SICHUAN, CHINA
Working with SKP and Sybarite, Field Operations designed a new destination that integrates nature and retail while celebrating Chengdu’s diverse historical and cultural background and rich natural landscape.
The “Botanic Quilt” for the project’s landscape design is a physical manifestation of the eclecticism that defines Chengdu. As a patchwork of places that combine to create the “quilt,” this new site fosters integration between architecture, retail, public spaces, and landscape with art as the connecting thread. The project introduces a game-changing relationship between inside and outside through innovative architecture and landscape design, working as one to provide an unrivaled retail experience.
SKP Chengdu opened in December 2022 as a first of its kind transit-oriented development and subterranean luxury shopping mall.
