STUDY OF THE EXTERIOR SPATIAL COMPOSITION IN SUBURBAN LARGE SHOPPING CENTER

Abstract

The aim of this study is to clarify the exterior spatial composition and its typology through parking space and promenade space management in large commercial facilities. First, we chronologically investigated the location, record of the lot through map. Secondly, the peripheral surroundings' conditions were examined and analyzed. Thirdly, the spatial composition of promenade space and promenade space were analyzed by arrangements of constituent. Fourthly, the “exterior space types” were made clear through similarities found between various characteristics and their arrangements. Following this we could demonstrate the genealogy of the “exterior space types” and the chronological change in relation to moving of their location. Finally, by comparing chronological change of types and moving of location, a framework for discussing the genealogy of exterior space in large commercial facilities can be presented.
