The first project in Portugal to combine a shopping centar and a retail park in its design, the Fórum Montijo was also innovative from the perspective of architecture in harmony with the environment, a concept seeking to create buildings from agricultural holdings and the region’s typical bullfighting squares that inspired the project. Using natural light and vast hallways where numerous, permanent works of public art are on display, specially created for this space and commissioned to Portuguese and foreign artists, and another strong feature of this shopping mall.
With over 58,000 square meters split over two floors, the Fórum Montijo was a suprarregional project, providing shopping, restaurant and leisure activities for local residents, spanning the districts of Montijo, Barreiro, Moita and most of the Setúbal region.
Located just a few miles from the A12, connecting Margem Sul and Lisbon via the Vasco da Gama bridge, the excellent access options help to ensure success for this shopping destination.
Engexpor oversaw project and works management, in coordination with the storeowners’ committee.
