According To the Office

Office of Civil Works, that is. The malls all have themselves grand legacies, and many of them stem from their age- some are older than most of those who now shelter in them, while some are so young as to have practically opened their doors to the zombie mobs. In order...

Appearances

Caiger Mall: Two-story white-stone building with muted cream-and-orange color scheme. Very linear and straightforward.

Calvert Mall: Three stories high. Art-deco exterior; canvas turbines on the roof can provide power when the grid is down. Interior recalls the age of sail; blue-and-white colors, sailing ship motifs and design scheme, and nautical themes in the stores bring to mind an era of pirates, cannons, tea, and treasure.

Dowdney Mall: Two stories high. Facade of dull yellow sandstone, with gothic-esque guttering and numerous gargoyles. Large bronze statue of namesake outside north entrance. Inside, very spartan design- lit mostly by artificial lighting, metal and concrete design with steel blue and light gray color scheme. Massive mural adorns the south wall of the food court.

Lumber Mall: Four stories high. Exterior is metal and glass. Very enclosed. Green color scheme, rows of pillars along the internal avenues, and rustic decor give the feeling of walking in a forest. Low lighting. Originally a four-block mall: everything east of the food court and central avenue blasted away by Army during the Outbreak. Opening sealed off by massive wall of mishmash.

Joachim Mall: Two stories high. White stone exterior with multiple minaret-like spires. Glass skylights and dome; multiple atriums and plazas inside. Tan-and-faded blue color scheme. Many tile mosaics- a Middle-Asia sort of atmosphere.

Nichols Mall: Three stories high. Red-brick exterior with pillars and countless windows. Glass roof; large open spaces inside and lots of greenery growing in the plazas. Feels airy and free inside, with shops designed to stand on their own, creating gaps in between allowing for fast and easy passage around the mall.

Marven Mall: Secular, made of yellow stone. Resembles from above a stylized version of the sun- eight main avenues branching out into the mall from a central plaza. Avenues stick out at the ends, hence the building often being viewed as narrow. Inside, yellow-and-cream color scheme painted in 70's style hallway "wave" designs. Several portions of the roof toward the mall's center collapsed inward due to artillery hit early in the outbreak.

Pole Mall: See Clapton Stadium's picture for an idea of the exterior. Inside, muted red color scheme and flowing lines. Very circular, rounded, and modern- supposed to mesh perfectly with the depicted Clapton Stadium.

Tompson Mall: Faceless concrete exterior; very bare and imposing. Roof is ringed by twelve golden statues representing the twelve primary points of Maltonian law. Interior is very 70's- spiralling designs of wood and vinyl in orange and brown make for a welcoming feeling.
