INTRODUCTION
• A shopping mall is a privately owned public space,
designed and constructed to profit financially the
investor’s concerned while it also serves as a
recreational and shopping destination for the public
• As such, the design principles applied should enhance
its success
• Success of a shopping mall can be described in two
main aspects:

occupying the investors asset and,
o Architectural success- This is the public acceptance of
the space that has been created once constructed
• Combining the two words, a shopping mall is a building
or set of buildings that provide walkways for the public
to walk from one unit to another within the same
building/set of buildings as they go about their business
of exchanging goods and services for money.
