Slides are a type of toy for children. Generally, it only appears in kindergartens or parks, but now it has become a gimmick for shopping malls to attract traffic. Many shopping center designs have introduced giant rotating slides to create a whirlpool of crowds in shopping centers! Let’s take a look at the slides in the design of major shopping centers.
Taichung : Daluko New Era Shopping Center
Daluko New Era Shopping Center is the first in Taiwan to set up slides in department stores. There are 2 slides set up in the mall, which are intertwined from the top and tangled down. The two aerial stairs are different in height and are built on the 2nd and 3rd floors respectively.
The staircase on the 3rd floor is 16 meters long and has a vertical height of 9.4 meters. It takes only 9 seconds to slide from the 3rd floor to the 1st floor to reach; the staircase on the 2nd floor is 11.5 meters long and has a vertical height of about 5.2 meters.
Kaohsiung : Yida World Shopping Plaza
Yida World Shopping Plaza launched a spiral slide with the theme of "Jack and Magic Beans". It has a vertical height of 17.2 meters and is about 4 floors high. It only takes 12 seconds to slide from the 4th floor to the 1st floor, with a speed of 67 kilometers per hour, and the slide curvature is 110 degrees. It is known as the most bent "three-dimensional spiral slide" in Asia.
Yida World Shopping Plaza transforms the curved ladder body of the slide into a magic bean stem, and is designed with the leaves on the ladder and the large giant board slide at the entrance into a circle and a half circle. The 110-degree slide curvature is the most bent in Asia, making tourists feel like they are leaping down from a vine.
Tainan: Shigu Rentang Cultural and Creative Park
Tainan Cultural and Creative Indicators "Shigu Rentang Cultural and Creative Park", one of the most popular facilities is the "Asia's highest transparent slide" with a height of 13.5 meters. Passengers must wear gloves and sleeves to cover their hands to prevent friction. They also need to wear safety helmets. Before sliding down, they must also use sliding pads to cover their lower body. If they relax, they can swivel down along the slide . In less than 9 seconds, they can return to the ground from the height of 5 floors.
Pudong: Paris Spring Department Store
This giant dragon-shaped slide hovers down from the highest 5th floor of the mall, and can slide to one floor, winding and curved in the middle. The total height is nearly 19 meters, the total length of the slide is 54 meters, and it takes about 16 seconds to slide. The entire slide is fully enclosed and the interior is made of metal, which is very smooth.
Shenzhen: Xinsha Tianhong Shopping Center
In order to meet the strangeness of the young consumer groups in the surrounding families about new things, Xinsha Tianhong tried large-scale sports experience projects in the shopping center in the capital of Shenzhen. It has set up Shenzhen’s first indoor super slide in the atrium of the shopping center, which is 15 meters high and can experience the pleasure of rapid sliding in just 10 seconds. The slide entrance and exit are designed like a person sticking out his tongue.
Design creates value, creativity changes the future! In the current environment of intensifying commercial competition, shopping malls have long since turned to competing for products, brands, business formats, etc. to competing for appearance, themes and characteristics. The introduction of a rotating slide in shopping mall design has become a highlight. (Some content comes from the Internet, please delete if infringement)
