Anteprojeto arquitetônico de um supermercado varejista de vizinhança em Maceió

Abstract

The retail segment has been under modifications as to its physical space and products sale. In the past few decades, it is noticiable that major retailers are building compact stores to comercialize their products, the so called neighbourhood supermarkets. The present work aims to perform an architectural project proposal of a neighbourhood retail supermarket in Maceió-Al. A literature review was conducted regarding the transformations the retail market has gone through the past few decades in Brazil, as well as a brief research on guiding principles for creating store layout for supermarkets. At the end, an architectural proposal is presented having the present discussion as background.
