westside centre model

while the status of studio daniel libeskind’s ‘L-tower’ remains unresolved, progress on the new westside
shopping and leisure centre in bern, switzerland moves ahead. the libeskind designed mall aims to
create a new generation of shopping center. the building is set to be complete in early october and will
combine retail space with a wellness center, cinema, hotel and some residences. the angular structure
integrates with the landscape and the specific site. windows are cut into the light wood façade.
these windows become illuminated at night standing out against the building. libeskind aimed to combine
the facility’s wide range of activity into one harmonious center.
