Sunset El Tesoro is a gastronomic and leisure area located in the El Tesoro Shopping Center in the city of Medellín. The project aimed to create a commercial and relaxation space on the second-floor bridge connecting the towers of the shopping center in the eastern area, offering visitors a panoramic view of the city. The design focused on utilizing this pedestrian space to provide a cozy place where users could enjoy gastronomy and gather to watch the sunset.
The design of the space was based on maintaining a functional perimeter circulation to meet the needs of the shopping center, while creating a winding path inside to accommodate and connect the eight commercial brands intended to operate in this area. Each brand was located in a standard kiosk equipped with a bar, kitchen equipment, and customer service area, operating independently and integrating into the space through common areas with tables for customers.
Different types of leisure spaces were designed, such as tables for 2 and 4 people, individual or group bars for up to 6 people, and mobile tables to accommodate larger groups. This allows users to adapt the space according to their needs, choose from various dining options, and use the appropriate leisure area based on their group size. This provides flexibility for visitors to personalize their experience at Sunset El Tesoro.
