Mall Entrance Architecture


I think the design of the entrance to this mall was rather unusual with the blue glass cubes at the top, contrasting the curved front with pillars and all those large cement spheres. My thought is that the spheres are to protect the entrance from vehicles crashing into it - we have some crazy drivers here in Saudi Arabia!

  1. I’ve seen those spheres at other malls too. They would prevent anyone driving in there for sure.

  2. Interesting shot. As you know, we have similar spheres here in the USA, it seems spaced a little closer together.

  3. There's a store in my town with those big concrete balls in front. I think they also deter the skateboarders and people pulling up too close to the doors to let out passengers.

  4. A unique entrance. I agree with you, the large concrete spheres would keep cars from crashing into the building. Our local Target has something similar.
