Описание проекта

MEGA Garden is a large-scale shopping and entertainment complex planned in Astana, Kazakhstan, developed as part of the expansion of the MEGA retail chain. The project is designed as a next-generation lifestyle mall that integrates retail, leisure, and public space into a single destination. Its defining feature is a large indoor botanical garden of up to 10,000 m², positioned as the central element of the building. This concept aims to create a year-round recreational environment regardless of Astana’s harsh climate. The complex will include retail galleries, restaurants, entertainment zones, and pedestrian areas integrated with greenery. The architectural concept emphasizes extended visitor dwell time and experiential consumption. The project is intended to serve both residents of new districts and transit flows toward the airport. It represents a shift from traditional retail formats toward mixed-use leisure-oriented developments. The design is being developed by an international architectural firm with experience in major retail projects. Overall, the project is positioned as a landmark commercial and social hub in the city’s expanding urban area.
