Designing the World's Best Retail Centers

Ronald A. Altoon is an internationally recognised authority on this history, development and architecture of the retail centre.

Future prototypes are suggested, with an exploration of sustainable design in retail and the development of the 21st-century retail centre. Superbly illustrated, the book presents a host of projects from around the world, in a variety of contexts, including main street, urban, resort, transit-related, mixed-use and retail precincts. This book is a remarkable insight into the global, polymorphus and multi-cultural experience that is retail.
