These criteria have been formulated to ensure each LESSEE, their Architect or Designer, Contractor and
representatives, understand storefront and signage requirements. Variety and creativity in design are allowed by
these criteria and encouraged by iMall. These criteria are applicable to all LESSEES. It is the intent of these criteria
that stores maintain a “SHOW WINDOW” concept for storefront design and therefore, all LESSEES are encouraged
to maximize the use of glass as a basic storefront material.
LCLRI and its designated representatives shall have absolute right of view and approval over all aspects of LESSEE
improvements within the LESSEE-lease premises; especially display and presentation appearance at all times.
LCLRI may, at their discretion, waive any of the design criteria for as long as the concept, quality and character of the
mall project is not significantly affected. LCLRI also reserves the right to make corrections and impose changes on
submitted storefront plans and elevations in the interest of improving perceived aesthetics and maintaining a distinct
look and class among Partner mix types.
All LESSEE’s work shall conform to the following standards including pre-determined shop front criteria and
conditions as specified and attached.
