Project Description

The Landmark Village is a 38,000 sqm mixed-use site along the Atlantic Ocean beachfront in Victoria Island, Lagos set to emulate Rosebank in Johannesburg, the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront in Cape Town and Canary Wharf in London. The site is being developed into an ultramodern business, leisure and lifestyle destination over the next 5 years. It was noted as the most visited leisure destination in Lagos, with an average footfall of up to 55,000 visitors weekly.

The first phase of development was high end retail/leisure broad-walk and office spaces. The retail block was designed as a three storey structure consisting of line shops, supermarket and cinema on ground and first floor and open plan office space/ training centre on second floor. The linear strip retail created an envelope along the boulevard and hence giving that space a sense of enclosure and yet open from all fronts.

Integration of buildings with public plazas with uninterrupted walkable connectivity was designed to develop an Urban spaces based on “live – work – play”. Pedestrian movement and public nodes were strategically planned leading to destination hub at both ends and Intersection axis connecting the entrance to ocean.
All of this to be constructed while the event center and the restaurants remain live.

Delivering the public realm is one of the most important components of any city or neighborhood. As such, the built form and streetscape treatments provided were an attractive, safe and comfortable pedestrian environment, while maintaining the overall visual cohesiveness of the area.
This was achieved through a variety of design responses, which included open shop fronts, covered retail passage on ground floor, placement of stairs connecting floors and open plaza, acrylic light boxes being the part of façade cladding system.

The architectural details in terms of paving patterns, shaded seating, pop-up shops, adequate sidewalk widths, easy accessibility of ramps and other features for comfortable and safe movement spaces for both pedestrians and the disabled.
Well thought locations for utilities and advertising/signage were proposed to connect well to all other street functions. The appropriate provision for access, deliveries and parking of vehicles was provided and hence catering to high end commercial urban hubs.
