Premium outlet malls are increasingly popular recently due to the higher demands from retailers to sell their off-season products separately. Located at Batu Kawan, Penang, Design Village Outlet Mall is one of the latest additions to this retailing concept in Malaysia.
It's common among tourists to experience walking on the five-foot ways along the quaint shophouses in the streets of Georgetown. This is the very same experience that the outlet would like to offer its shoppers.
Built on a 24-acre tropical garden, Design Village Outlet Mall is the largest premium outlet in the country to date.
Geometric shapes inspired by jewellery boxes are part of the outlet’s architecture. The single-storey shops were designed based on a sleeping figure of 8 with green spaces in between. Ultimately, the outlet hopes to provide their visitors with a comfortable shopping experience.
What makes this outlet stand out from conventional outlet malls is the generous landscaping, water features, air-cooled sheltered walkways, playgrounds and various seating areas. Shoppers can also find the best hawker cuisine at the outlet for a complete experience of Penang.
We understand that having good technical know-how and choosing the right products is central to create safe, practical and everlasting structures. Our people are always inspired by impressive architecture and strive to develop efficient solutions to help overcome any construction limitations.
As the outlet's design involved defining geometric shapes and structure, the outlet required a versatile roofing system that can match the overall architecture.
This is where the LYSAGHT® KLIP-LOK® OPTIMA™ and LYSAGHT® SPANDEK® OPTIMA™ proved their capabilities.
The highlight of the building’s design is the promenade’s V-shaped roof which promoted natural ventilation for energy-efficiency and at the same time, capable of deflecting direct sunlight.
The new Kota Kinabalu High Court Complex was built to mirror its representation of individuality, as well as national recognition.
