Destination themed retail.

Re-creating world famous destinations

Directed design through design development for this million SF themed retail environment in the US$2 billion Venetian Macau.

Kevin led a team of 10 architects developing and documenting a "kit of parts" for the Venetian-style themed facades, colors/materials program, and on-going development studies.

Famous facades of the real Venice were the basis for many of the featured facades throughout.
The Grand Canal Shoppes in Macau are four times larger than the original in Las Vegas.
Detailed color call outs ensure fabrication true to design intent
