THE DINING EXPERIENCE™ AT BONAIRE, SPAIN

The Designer Gallery™ draws inspiration from the world of magazines and concept stores to offer a unique, exclusive and contemporary shopping experience based on a mix of concept stores, renowned international brands and promising young designers.

The Designer Gallery™ is present in Westfield Mall of Scandinavia (Stockholm, Sweden), Galeria Mokotów (Warsaw, Poland) and, since October 2017, in Westfield Chodov (Prague, Czech Republic).

The Designer Gallery™ in Galeria Mokotów was the first rollout of the concept in an existing shopping centre. The shopping centre welcomed new retail concepts with the first Uterqüe, & Other Stories, and Dior Parfums in Poland.

The 3,000m² area hosts a Designer Gallery Studio and a coffee shop, plus art, fashion and lifestyle events.

Fresh! is a local food market covering more than 1,500m², combining the best high-street food concepts with vibrant gastronomic activities.

There is a growing demand for fresh, organic, local produce and gourmet cuisine that is meticulously prepared and presented. Likewise, there is a need for reinventing this food offer in a desirable place. Fresh! is not only a destination but a true gastronomic experience.

Showcasing the best local produce, this Fresh! destination is an exceptional gourmet hall. Apart from offering great food, a large number of workshops take place at La Cuina del Mercat, in order to enrich the customer experience.

In Donau Zentrum, the Family Experience includes two innovative playgrounds with a magic tree, multiple slides, a magic attic, plus many other activities, workshops and a childcare service.

In October 2017, Centrum Černý Most (Prague, Czech Republic) became the second shopping centre in the Group’s portfolio in Continental Europe to welcome the Family Experience.
