That is one lying rendering. Why would there be that many people there in the middle of a sunny day and why would they be so spread out all over the place?
Not really a critique of THIS project, it's pretty much a global standard way of doing architectural renderings that I find a bit dishonest.


Trg Pravde is looking... weird. Isolated from the urban fabric yet set in it. The scale is weird and doesn't connect to the streets at all. The offices in the buildings will probably be great tho and the square relaxing.

LOL, don't shoot the messenger

BTW, Adjacent to the shopping mall you can see Zagreb Arena (capacity 20-25 000) and latest addition to the shopping mall are two 20-25 floor towers, not sure if they are residential or office, perhaps mix use...

Entire thing is huge, shopping mall itself 120 000 sqm of retail therapy and gross area of 230 000sqm.

Few more pics of Arena Center and 123000sqm mall, construction starts this autumn, and works should be complete by the end of 2011. This will be largest mall in Croatia once completed, although only for a short while as a much larger shopping mall is planed at the outskirts of Zagreb.

Not to get all excited, there have been plans for a 50 storey ( 200 meters) business tower to get built in the Ljubljanska avenue by a Split company under the name "Fonem".It will be the tallest building in Croatia and most likely in the whole region once it's completed. It will have a hotel in the lower part of the building with over 250 rooms. The price will move around 100 milion Euros. I think it got approved or something.



Part of the render mayb ?

This new 50 level tower recieved initial approval by the city government. They are now in the process for the architectural design competition.

Once a developer announces a skyscraper in Zagreb they firstly recieve the initial OK from the city government that the site allows a highrise development and also that the proposed height is within the set cap.

The next step is that the Zagreb Institute of Architects is informed. They then call a design competition. A winning design is then chosen.

Anyway, thats the initial process in a nutshell.

This new tower will have a hotel in the bottom half of the building while the upper levels will be offices.

So SinCity, what do you think? How certain is the realisation of this project? in percentage for example.

164m office tower is to be built in Zagreb's business district, wining entry - a 164m Black Monolith, once built (around late 2010) tower will be the tallest office tower in Croatia. Plan calls for a twin tower...

Black Monolith (Space Odyssey 2001 comes to mind) - this is the wining entry.


Other Entries...


1. Black Monolith


2. 4 Box Tower:


3.


4.


5.


6.( Bubble Tower):


7.


8.164 Business Tower - I like this one most...

Wow Zagreb looking really good lately. Pushing the envelope when it comes to architecture. Something i like to see. Some really neat projects.

I was just wondering if anyone has a picture of that comunist era building at ban jelacic. I remember they were renovating it last time i was there last year and am very curious to how it turned out. It would be much appreciated.

Hvala puno

Also thank you very much for the updates mic of orion, good stuff
