VIVA Odense VIVA means life. And VIVA Odense is a tribute to modern shopping. We let the city s soul inspire us and combine it with the experience gained from Steen & Strøm s many existing shopping centres. A life-affirming development We re building Viva Odense, the city s new shopping centre, on the site of the old abattoir on Østre Stationsvej. With more than 100 shops, cafés and restaurants, 1,600 parking spaces and its location next to the main railway station within easy distance of the current city centre, the foundation for success is already in place. But our ambitions reach further. With a design that is a tribute to diversity, Steen and Strøm aims to create an international hub for Odense and the entire region. That s why Viva Odense builds on a completely new form of shop composition, delivering a previously unseen commercial strength. Fashion Living Sport Media Kids Food Six major areas Today s shopping can be divided into six main groups that our visitors look for: fashion, living, sport, electronics, children s products and groceries. With Viva Odense, we ve taken that to heart and divided the centre into six powerful, streamlined shopping areas that all meet the requirements and demands of the modern consumer.

Our vision for VIVA Odense is built on three key elements. Together, they renew Danish retail trade. Clusters, zones and streetscapes Viva Odense gathers the major product groups into six main areas, called clusters. Each cluster is a unique experience created through interior design, environment and expression called a zone. And as a natural extension of the current pedestrian precinct, the city winds its way through Viva Odense both in the form of spaces and as an urban main artery with an open roof. We call these streetscapes. The combination of these three key elements will redefine modern shopping and, at the same time, secure Viva Odense a significant benchmark position in the region.

Clusters Key element no. 1 Shoulder to shoulder. a strong community Fashion living sport media kids food Grouping shops into clusters is a new element in Danish shopping centres. The shops are gathered together according to their line of business, which is a completely new basic principle for modern shopping. Basic principle One or more anchor tenants indicate the makeup of each of the six clusters. They are institutions in Danish retail trade and a preferred destination for our visitors. Benchmark shops are then positioned around the anchor tenants, creating a broad foundation. Finally, the cluster is supplemented by new and upcoming concepts that make the shopping experience even more inspiring. Results The various clusters strengthen the commercial attraction by making shopping choice visible in a clear and convincing way. And it gives shops invaluable inspiration through collaboration and competition. location of clusters with fashion on both levels Each cluster has at least one anchor tenant as a pivotal participant. The anchor tenant is surrounded by related shopping concepts A completely new universe for women only 1,200 square metres of shopping, café, luxury, treats and places to hang out in Odense s new city centre. Steen & Strøm Denmark have created a completly new framework for a unique fashion experience in an inspiring universe with 14-16 strong concepts within fashion, shoes and accessories, as well as cafés, hairdressing salons and maniqure. We call it the Powder Room because it s a place where women set the agenda. The Powder Room environment is transparent, light and organic. The atmosphere is both feminie and intimate, but with a definite urban shopping feeling. The selected shops are strong fashion and lifestyle brands and within their field they represent a touch of luxury. level 0 level 1 Powder Room s vision is to match the exclusive department stores product range and shopping environment.

Zones Key element no. 2 Three principles for interior design in the zone A sense of history is strengthened through interior design Textures Floors, walls and other surfaces are based in the world of the individual clusters. one-liners Little surprises that underline the unique character of the world you find yourself in. Each cluster is established in a zone where design and shopping experience support mercantile history. We also use the environment around the shops to make Viva Odense a complete, well thought out experience. Each zone has its own unique character If you wander through Living, for example, you experience an interior characterised by wood, soft lights, and perhaps an open fire. There s an intimate, cosy atmosphere that strengthens both a positive atmosphere and the desire to purchase. Viva Odense delivers varied, inspiring impressions that give an extra dimension to the shopping experience. Pinnacle The lighthouse is a non-commercial attraction that works as the cluster s landmark and point of reference.

Streetscapes Key element no. 3 A meeting place and its surroundings The many cafés and restaurants underline the city environment and make VIVA Odense a great place to meet in the city Viva Odense takes responsibility for its location in the heart of the city by having an open structure with streets, spaces and plazas. Externally, Viva Odense helps to make the city more attractive. Internally, it heralds an exciting urban renewal. Gathering the city together Viva Odense will not turn its back on its city. On the contrary, it will invite both the town and its inhabitants to make the new city shopping centre into the piece of the puzzle that has, up until now, been missing from the town s shopping profile. Viva Odense ties together the city s shopping streets, the big area around the main train/railway station and the Kongensgade quarter into a powerful, cohesive unit. Secured access Viva Odense ensures solid access by focusing on an optimal infrastructure. As well as 1,600 parking spaces and 2,500 cycle stands, the inner main street creates a natural flow between the town and the train station s 25,000 daily users. main station VIVA Odense helps extend the old city towards the area around the main station. Viva Odense is a clear and natural extention of the city The landscaping in the large plaza in front of the main entrance invites people to hangout and relax. And inside the citycentre the whole approach is urban. Just like a city there is an open sky, small plazas, walkways and changing facades that all underline the urban state of mind. Odense is the main catalyst for development on Funen. The city is frequently used by its 190,000 inhabitants and the region s population of almost 500,000. Until now, the city has been without a modern collection of retail sellers in the city centre. Viva Odense changes that completely.

Bluewater Bullring westfield Benoy s task was clear: VIVA Odense had to unite the best elements of town and city centre in a hybrid solution that would define the future. The result is a reinterpretation that makes complete sense. A natural meeting place quickly becomes the hub of the whole structure westfield International architecture The privilege of designing Viva Odense fell to the English architects Benoy, who specialise in shopping centres and urban renewal. They operate all over the world and a large number of their solutions incorporate the integration of shopping centres with town, inhabitants and leisure. Many Danish retailers are already familiar with their work in projects like Bullring, Westfield and Bluewater. This is how we do it in Odense Together, architects Robert Bishop and Mike Wilson- MacCormack are the driving force in the work with Viva Odense opens up to the city s traditional business areas with pla- Viva Odense.
