mallstar1[1]Toronto-based Eventscape has built and installed a new sculptural feature for the Mall of America (MOA) in Bloomington, Minn., depicting the famous retail facility’s revamped star logo in three dimensions.

The approximately 4.9 x 4.9-m (16 x 16-ft) and 5,443-kg (12,000-lb) star incorporates four layers of 19-mm (0.75-in.) thick laminated glass and white light-emitting diodes (LEDs), anchored by a stainless steel frame to a concrete slab base. The different colours of the four glass layers were chosen to match MOA brand standards.

The star was commissioned as the centrepiece for a new VIP entrance, part of an ongoing 69,677-m2 (750,000-sf) MOA expansion that will include additional stores and restaurants, an office tower and a luxury hotel.
