Investors behind Battersea Power Station reveal designs for planned 鈥楳alaysia Square鈥�
The Malaysian developers behind Battersea Power Station have unveiled plans for a public square adjoining the south side of the former power station in south London.
Designed by Copenhagen-based practice BIG, Malaysia Square will form an 鈥榰rban canyon鈥� with bridges integrating into the rest of the development.
The public square will link the southern entrance of the restored Grade II* listed Power Station that has been re-imagined by Wilkinson Eyre Architects and the top of the new Electric Boulevard high street that runs between Foster + Partners鈥� 鈥楤attersea Roof Gardens鈥� and Gehry Partners鈥� 鈥楶rospect Place鈥�.
The spaces will be clad with limestone, granite, marble, sandstone, gravel and dolomite striations to reflect the geology of Malaysia that will lead people through the square.
The 拢8bn 42-acre site is one of the largest construction projects in the capital and when complete will deliver 2,400 homes, as well as office, retail and leisure space.
