This building work, known as retail, includes commercial buildings such as shopping centres located in the same building or different buildings located in an enclosed or open-air complex, and retail parks in which various buildings are larger than conventional shops or the so-called outlets. All these typologies are typically located on the outskirts of population centres, in industrial areas with access from roads and parking available nearby.
Current trends in this sector are moving towards creating spaces for sales and creating experiences for visitors to the shopping centre, such as sports and leisure activities, i.e., integrating leisure into shopping. Therefore, at the construction level, different areas are planned, some areas for shops and others for leisure and restaurant areas, which could include, for example, a lake with the constructive singularity that this would entail.
For shopping centre developers, this guideline must be foreseen in the architecture design and during construction. These spaces must be planned and connected to the users’ reality to offer the best experience.
In addition, older shopping centres in the cities are being refurbished and repositioned with more contemporary and carefully designed architectural images, using more modern and sustainable materials. In this sense, in retail, it must always be considered that this project has the singularity of executing the works. At the same time, the shopping centre is open to the public, so it is necessary to have a team specialised in these works.
Both in the older shopping centres and in the new ones that offer more unique and technological leisure spaces, the maintenance and upkeep of the shopping centres play a crucial role in the image projected to the user.
