Aedas-designed Xi’an Lovi Center has opened in 2023 June and served as an urban oasis for the city. Located in Xi’an, the project is comprised of a shopping mall, office and hotel towers. Designed to be a vibrant mixed-use destination, Lovi Center has become a unique retail-recreational attraction through the hybrid of public space and greenery.
Injected with vibrancy and envisioned as a garden city, Lovi Center is filled with 100% natural greenery and flowers through podiums, gardens and green belts, marking itself a people-centric location with diverse commercial activities. It creates an immersive experience that consists of art and cultural exhibition, delivering an interactive and inspiring journey for visitors. With various young leisure and recreational brands, Lovi Center is slated to be an iconic retail hub to satisfy the needs of all-age groups.
‘We have designed the project with aesthetics and functionality and brought vitality to the city. We are delighted to see the realisation of it and look forward to seeing the hotel completion next year.’ Global Design Principals Christine Lam and David Clayton share.
Xi’an city is located in Shaanxi province in the Northern part of China, where it is held in high regard for having been the starting point of the Silk Road. Perched next to the South Third Ring Road at Yan Ta district in Xi’an, the Lovi Center is comprised of retail, hotel and offices elements. Surrounded by residential area with accessible public transportation, it is also close to many attractions, such as the Shaanxi TV Tower and the Xi’an museum.
