Ayala Malls Capitol Bacolod

Within the storied Bacolod Capitol Complex in Bacolod City lies the seven-story commercial complex known as Ayala Malls Capitol Central. The Negros Occidental Provincial Capitol, a National Historical Landmark, sits behind the mall, which has a gross floor area of 72,000 square meters. A large green wall that spans 1,260 square meters of the mall’s main facade acts as an unobtrusive backdrop to the significant civic structure in front, the Beaux Art style of which served as inspiration for several of the mall’s design decisions. A BPO office, a department store, a bazaar, a food court, a fiesta market, and an activity center are all located there. The site’s existing trees were protected and merged with the new construction. “The civic building in front, whose Beaux Art style served as inspiration for the mall’s design, is unobtrusively framed by the mall’s enormous green wall.”
