dc.description.abstractThe study of the spatial and circulation design considerations in shopping mall design seeks to understand how the layout, flow, and organization of these spaces can affect the overall shopping experience and ultimately contribute to the success of the mall as a commercial and social hub. Circulation is a problem in many shopping malls today due to several factors. One issue is poor design and layout, which can lead to congestion, bottlenecks, and confusion for visitors trying to navigate the space. The instrument for the study was a qualitative research method with a case study approach. Two local case studies were examined which are Ikeja City Mall, and Novare Gateway Mall, Abuja. In addition, three international case studies were examined (Accra Mall in Ghana, The Boulevard Mall in U.S.A, and Dubai Mall in United Arab Emirates). Journals, books, and previous research works relevant to the study on layout and circulation of shopping malls were also examined. Deductions from the case studies enabled the study to derive the spatial requirements for a shopping mall that are but not limited to retail outlets, anchor stores, cinemas, entertainment areas, common areas, and services areas. Also from the case studies and literature review, this study was able to assess critical design considerations for achieving proper layout and enhancing circulation in shopping malls. The circulation design consideration were discussed includes clear and intuitive layout, central circulation spine, zoning of similar facilities, ample walkways, strategic placements of entry and exit, provision of service access, design flexibility, accessibility, and safety measures. As a result, the study recommends that circulation design consideration are not overlooked in the design and construction of shopping centres.
