Retail design is a complex field that combines architecture, interior design, product design, and other disciplines. It must respond to constant changes in consumer demands and trends. The role of the retail designer is to develop store interiors that communicate the brand and encourage shopping using principles of psychology, technology, and ergonomics. Design thinking, with its holistic and user-centered approach, is important in retail to create innovative store environments and experiences that seduce customers into purchasing. As power has shifted to consumers, branding has become a critical tool in retail design to differentiate products in the marketplace.
