Outlet Szczecin

Szczecin

The project to implement nature-based solutions (NBS) at the Outlet Park shopping centre in Szczecin includes, amongst other things, the creation of new green spaces along the building façade, incorporating tall vegetation, pergolas over the pavements, trellises with climbing plants to provide shade over car parking spaces, an increase in the biodiversity of existing green spaces, retention and infiltration basins, and a rainwater retention tank from the building’s roof to supply the green spaces.

What characteristic elements did we use in the project?
NEW GREEN SPACES

Along the facade, to provide shade for the approaches to the building, we have introduced strips of greenery by removing 335 m² of paving and planting 32 trees and 60 shrubs.

PERGOLAS

We are designing 5 pergolas with climbing plants above the footpaths, with trees in between them.

TRELLISES WITH CLIMBING PLANTS

We design trellises to provide shade for 66 parking spaces

attenuation crates

We design attenuation crates that reduce the discharge of rainwater into the sewerage system by approximately 95%.

What results have we obtained?

1
BIODIVERSITY

We have designed 4,550 m² of species-enrichment measures for the existing green spaces.

2
SHADE

We planted 98 tall trees to provide more shade, as well as 187 tall shrubs.

 

3
TEMPERATURE DECREASE

We have provided shade for 66 parking spaces and all the pavements leading to the building’s entrances.

4
BIORETENTION

We retained almost all the rainwater on site – a 95% reduction in the volume of rainwater discharged into the sewerage system
