The late twentieth century saw rapid growth in consumption and the
expansion of retailing and services. This was reflected in the
number and type of stores and locations, from regional shopping
malls and out-of-town superstores to concept and flagship stores.
Retail design became an essential part of its success by creating
distinctive brands and formats. However, the economic recession in
the developed world and competition for consumer goods from the
developing world has led to a re-assessment of the growth-led
conventions of the retail industry. In addition, the rapid advance
of e-commerce and online shopping has created new challenges for
physical stores and the communication and distribution of retail
brands. The book will provide students, researchers and
practitioners a detailed assessment of retail design, taking a
distinctive global approach to place design practice and theory in
context. Chapters are devoted to key issues in the visual and
structural contribution of design to retail brands and format
development, and to the role of design in communication. In the
course of the book, the authors engage with problems of convergence
between retailing and other services and between the physical and
virtual worlds, and also changing patterns of use, re-use and
ownership of retail spaces and buildings. Retail Design concerns
designers and organisations but also defines its broader
contribution to society, culture and economy.
