Didar Garden is one of the main halls of the complex, inspired by the alike named historical  gardens, where the architects in charge of the project imagined a cascade and a water flow  surrounded by vegetation to allow the access to the top floor of shops. The transparent  ceiling installed by Kuts allows zenithal natural light to enter through a Flexbrick catenary  16m long, hanged only from the sides. The vertical curtain separators with a random pattern  of terracotta bricks that separate the hall from the circulation paths, complete the 1400m2  of Flexbrick ceramic fabric seem to be flying and backlit, creating the atmosphere for this  oasis in the mall.
