Theme-based shopping mall design refers to the architectural and spatial planning approach that incorporates a specific theme or concept into the design of a shopping mall. This can include elements like themed decorations, thematic food courts, and stores that align with the chosen theme. The purpose is to create an immersive experience for shoppers, often aiming to differentiate the mall from others and attract a specific demographic. Key considerations include market research, budget, customer demographics, and the feasibility of executing the chosen theme.
