AlchemiaShopping Centre – interior design concept, summer 2011, was commissioned by the KUC Marketing Agency which created the brand name and prepared the brand strategy. The shopping centre was meant to be located right in the middle of the Market Square and its substantial part was planned to be under the ground and connect the Town Hall with a reconstructed frontage of tenant houses, thus combining daring urban concepts with a common square/city garden.The design project was suspended due to extended preparatory terrain works and exceptional archeological finds in the area. The design was presented to the commissioner and accepted by the investor, architects and the organization responsible for its commercialization.
