S6#60 🇺🇸🇬🇧 SPOT "Places to sell"

Com d'Archi

While trade dates back a long way, the act of exchange still involves physicality and space today. This was demonstrated over several months at the Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine in Paris in an exhibition entitled La Saga des Grands Magasins (The Saga of Department Stores). But at a time when immateriality and online sales are invading our lives, what are the new challenges facing retail outlets? What changes have we seen in their layout in recent years in response to the demands of climate change?

With this introductory SPOT format on a new theme, “Places to sell” through the ages and around the world, we look back at the exhibition, an opportunity to step back in time and put into perspective the testimonials to come from agencies specializing in retail. It is also a good time to take a critical stance, implicitly questioning our place in history and taking a step back from our contemporary era, despite the profound and inevitable changes we are experiencing.
