DDG’s design architecture for the Shangri-La hotel brand focuses on enhancing the guest experience by providing retail and entertainment options. Shangri-La’s property in Colombo provides the city’s first enclosed mall, a five-star hotel, and office and residential towers in the most prestigious part of the capitol. The seven-story mall is expected to attract premier retailers – and with a full complement of services, and has redefined the city’s shopping experience. Our design for another property focuses on the business and urban lifestyles by combining a corporate hotel with residential towers, a mall, community services, and enclosed parking levels.
