The Lyon Part-Dieu shopping centre houses a mixture of commercial, leisure and newly created public space. MVRDV's design to restructure each side of the mall, opening up the building to the street and adding a vast public roof garden. The revitalised façade, coupled with the redefinition of spaces within and outside the building, looks to reconnect the Part-Dieu centre with not only its immediate surroundings, but also to the greater Lyon.
