CPD Overview

This CPD with Zaha Hadid Architects explores the evolution of retail, impacts from the pandemic and how evolving consumer attitudes influence the design and demand for more engaging retail experiences.

Description

The CPD panel discussion in collaboration with Zaha Hadid Architects explores how the post-pandemic environment has forced us to reconsider our understanding of the traditional definitions of living, working and leisure. The series intends to examine specific typologies, the conflation of boundaries, the emergence of new definitions of interior space and the consequential impact on the people who commission, design and use them.

This part of the series focuses on the evolution of retail design. One of the fall-outs of the pandemic is undoubtedly the retail sector. The lack of access to physical spaces forced the retail industry to find new and inventive ways to communicate and distribute their goods and services in the digital landscape.

Guest speakers, Kar-Hwa Ho, Head of Interior Architecture at Zaha Hadid Architects; Sylvie Freund Pickavance, Strategy and Business Development Director at Valueretail; David McNulty, Head of Architecture at ICICLE Fashion Group discuss how evolving consumer attitudes and behaviours impact the design, use and significance of retail environments.

Learning Objectives:

With online platforms burgeoning and physical stores shuttering, discuss whether the pandemic hastened the demise of physical retail.
Find out if bricks and mortar stores can be supplanted by virtual platforms or if they can co-exist.
Discover whether certain types of retail formats or models are more resilient to the pandemic fallout.
Explore how the way we approach retail design has changed in a post-covid world.
Discuss how this will shape expectations for creating more meaningful and engaging retail experiences in the future.
