Mall retail criteriaShopfronts
There is an opportunity for each brand to demonstrate an exciting proposition with a bold and welcoming statement. Impactful but simple design statements or layered shopfronts work with considered visual merchandising to announce a great shop to the passing customer.

The essentialsFull height glazing is the key component. All retail frontages must go full height. Full width fascia bands are no longer an acceptable practice.
A clean line, contemporary and frameless approach to glazing is essential.
Glazed corners are to be frameless.
A bottom frame is acceptable in a stainless steel finish to 100mm high.
An active shopfront is fundamental.
Good views into the store must be maintained.
The flank walls next to the window are the most visible space to the customer, use them to make a brand statement.
The entranceAs the main feature of the shopfront, the entrance is all about making an inviting proposition, with an easy transition to cross the threshold.
Use design details to emphasize the way in.
Frameless glass doors with stainless steel patch fittings are welcomed.
Roller shutters may be used provided all guides are recessed into a shopfront entrance structure or set back at least 500mm from the lease line.

Mall retail criteriaSignage
Express yourself, communicate your brand and let the customer know you are here. Only innovative, high quality and well-designed signs will be approved. The detailing qualities will be a distinguishing factor.

A few important notesNo exposed screw fixings, electrical connections or cables on view.
No full-width fascias are permitted.
No flashing signage is permitted.
The back of the sign is to be tidy, with minimal connectors.
The essentialsThe main signage is to appear on the front face of the glazing.
Three-dimensional individual letters and logos are the make up of the signage. Full length fascia bands are not acceptable.
The size of the sign will be reviewed on an individual basis. Strong impressive statements in proportion to the shopfront will always be considered.
Integrated illumination is essential to make your sign stand out. Energy efficient LED is the preferred type of illumination.
Front face, side and halo illumination are all excellent ways to highlight quality signage.
A creative approach to glazing manifestation is essential, and is a building control requirement.
A singular grand statement is far more effective than repetition of the same element.
