A shopping mall, shopping centre,is one or more buildings forming a


complex of shops representing merchandisers, with
interconnecting walkways enabling visitors to easily walk from unit to unit,
along with a parking area – a modern, indoor version of the traditional
marketplace.
 Mainly a shopping complex has 3 main
parts
 Retail units
 Multiplex
 And atrium
 Retail units are the cluster of shops which forms the main part of
the complex then comes the multiplex or auditoriums or cinema
halls basically designed for the entertainment.
 Atrium is the connecting link between all the working bodies of the
mall. It can have staircases, escalators, lifts, kiosks , toilets and
most important – the entry and the exit.
Physical Characteristics
•Site area: 2,25,560 sq.ft.
•Retail area: 3,60,000 sqft
•Building age: 6 years
•Operating hour: 12 hours (11am to 11pm)
•Setting temperature: 24 degree
•Twin Atriums
•80% leased mall
 Whole planning has been done on grids.
 As per my observation two gridding patterns has been used
 The bigger one was 9m * 9m and another grid was 4m*9m.
 According to these grids shops are arranged and placed.
 Atrium has got bridging in between to connect opposite
longer passages.

AHU
 ONE MAJOR ASPECT OF COMFORT IN SHOPPING COMPLEX IS THE AIR HANDLING UNITS.
An air handler, or air handling unit is a device used to condition and circulate air
as part of a heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system. An air handler
is usually a large metal box containing a blower, heating or cooling
elements, filter racks or chambers, sound attenuators, and dampers. Air handlers
usually connect to a ductwork ventilation system that distributes the conditioned air
through the building and returns it to the AHU. Sometimes AHUs discharge (supply)
and admit (return) air directly to and from the space served without ductwork.
general planning of shops
Floor Plan
 Straight Floor Plan -The straight floor plan
makes optimum use of the walls, and utilizes the space in the most
judicious manner. The straight floor plan creates spaces within the retail store for
the customers to move and shop freely. It is one of the commonly
implemented store designs.
 Diagonal Floor Plan -According to the diagonal floor
plan, the shelves or racks are kept diagonal to each
other for the owner or the store manager to have a
watch on the customers. Diagonal floor plan works
well in stores where customers have the liberty to
walk in and pick up merchandise on their own.

 Angular Floor Plan -The fixtures and walls are given


a curved look to add to the style of the store. Angular
floor plan gives a more sophisticated look to the store.
Such layouts are often seen in high end stores.

 Geometric Floor Plan -The racks and fixtures are


given a geometric shape in such a floor plan. The
geometric floor plan gives a trendy and unique look to
the store.

 Mixed Floor Plan`-The mixed floor plan takes into


consideration angular, diagonal and straight layout to
give rise to the most functional store lay out.
Exteriors of mall
 Typical roman style has been used for construction.
 External façade is collonaded with a pillar as a point of emphasis in
front of the main entry.
