Supermarket floor layout has influence on customers shopping behaviour and movement path. However, past findings are mainly concentrated on layout patterns identification, lacking computational evaluation of real world layouts. In former research, algorithms in Depthmap such as VGA (Visibility Graph Analysis) and MAS (Multi-Agent Simulation), based...

This study refines three decoration cues from the photos in the online grocery store which enable consumer to experience grocery with affective responses. Three cues on consumers’ affective perception, attitudes as well as behavioral intention were examined in a laboratory experiment. The experiment results show that (1) both reflective surface and...

... In regards to commercial spaces, recent researches has attempted to understand the interactions between the conception parameters of shopping centers and socio-economic factors. These parameters mainly concern the distribution of shops/services, number and size of commercial premises, categories of users (Bai and Yao, 2018 ;Dong et al., 2017 ;Fezzai et al., 2020 ;Fong, 2005;Haofeng et al., 2017 ;Kong, E-M and Kim, Y-O, 2013 ;Min et al., 2012 ;Verdil, 2009;Yuo et al., 2013 ;Zhang et al., 2012). They have evidenced, even in part, the fact that the configuration of commercial structures (the layout of commercials' galleries and the arrangement of stores, entries, exits, etc.) has a direct impact on the deployment of commercial specialties (luxury shops, alimentary, services, etc.), the individual patterns of circulation spaces, and shopping practices. ...

This article questions the impact of the spatial configuration on user behavior and economic performance in the multi-level shopping center of Ritaj Mall in Constantine, Algeria. For ten years, large private real estate operators invest in different kinds of commercial building. The arrival of this new shopping complex in Algerian cities sis an opportunity to examine the question of architectural quality, especially that numerous papers and the theses have criticized the architectural production in Algerian, mainly in the residential and public sectors. Through the spatial analysis of the circulation spaces, the movement distribution and the architectural design parameters, the objective of this text is to better understand the correlation between “conceived” spaces and “lived” spaces. Their correlation constitutes a determining index of spatial qualities. For this purpose, an analysis is adopted according to a method of space syntax and completed by empirical surveys, and statistical correlation. Essentially, this paper shows that the axiality and interconnectedness of spaces largely determine the spatial quality of a commercial building. In addition, the central space (atrium) plays a determining role in the distribution of user flows over all vertical and horizontal spaces and extensions. It also shows the importance of spatial accessibility parameters in the distribution of economic and social activities
... The connectivity analysis is literally like its name, it shows how well the areas or rooms are connected or integrated with others, whereas the visual control analysis picks out visually dominant areas and those areas must see many spaces but each space should see relatively little [16]. Area with high control values always plays an important role in the spatial structure [17]. Therefore, the location from the visual control analysis will be used as generating location in the next two analyses. ...
... The isovist is a polygon that contains all the visible areas from a particular location [16], see figure 3. Meanwhile, the isovist area counts the number of nodes that are visible from a certain location [16,17]. Visibility is the key point in VGA. ...
... The red tone indicates a high-visibility value, while the blue tone indicates a low-visibility value. As the visible defined in the program is undirected, the spot with a higher isovist area in a plan has a large vision and also has high visibility from other parts of the space [17]. ...

The small type of landed housing with limited living space (compact living space) has been vastly growing in several of Indonesia’s regency areas, such as in Karawang. However, despite those limited spaces, the house’s role as a hub of family interaction must be preserved. The suggested method to improve the quality of occupant interaction is by applying visual stimuli elements. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the potential placement of a visual stimulus using Karawang’s small housing type as a case study. The primary analysis was processed using the isovist of space syntax approach and focused on Visibility Graph Analysis (VGA). The result shows that the veranda and the transitional area, which intersect with the entrance, have the best visibility value from the living room as the communal space. Those areas are identified as the best placement for visual stimuli. Based on this study, it is suggested for the designer and occupier to organize the veranda area, the transitional area along the side of the living room, and their surrounding walls, using visual stimuli (such as colour, furnishing, or decorations) to get quality family interaction.
... Supermarket layout design is an increasing concern among both retail facilities and practitioners. Dong (2018) carried out multi agent simulation method in attempt to recognise layout pattern on the other hand (Page et al., 2019) configured both design and operational parameters such as aisles, store areas travel duration, etc. ...
