Le Spot at Evry 2 in Île-de-France completes

Designed by Chapman Taylor, Le Spot is a brand-new destination created as part of the restructuring of Evry 2, a large regional shopping centre and complex in Île-de-France.

Le Spot, brings together leisure functions, a redesigned retail offer, and a brand-new food concept.

The project has created a covered square with terraces and restaurants in place of vacant offices, as well as the redevelopment of the existing food and beverage area. New retail kiosks further liven up the mall.

Design Concept

The visual impact from the side of the Place des Terrasses has been enhanced with a sinusoidal canopy supported by V-shaped metal columns. The facades are white lacquered aluminium cassettes, the lightness of which helps to limit added weight on existing structures.

Coloured inserts also enliven the facades. They are made of a translucent material backlit by LEDs, with variable intensities according to the outside ambient light and will animate the Place des Terrasses at nightfall.
