Download or read book The Big Book of Concepts written by Gregory Murphy and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2004-01-30 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concepts embody our knowledge of the kinds of things there are in the world. Tying our past experiences to our present interactions with the environment, they enable us to recognize and understand new objects and events. Concepts are also relevant to understanding domains such as social situations, personality types, and even artistic styles. Yet like other phenomenologically simple cognitive processes such as walking or understanding speech, concept formation and use are maddeningly complex. Research since the 1970s and the decline of the "classical view" of concepts have greatly illuminated the psychology of concepts. But persistent theoretical disputes have sometimes obscured this progress. The Big Book of Concepts goes beyond those disputes to reveal the advances that have been made, focusing on the major empirical discoveries. By reviewing and evaluating research on diverse topics such as category learning, word meaning, conceptual development in infants and children, and the basic level of categorization, the book develops a much broader range of criteria than is usual for evaluating theories of concepts.

Download or read book Retail Design written by Ann Petermans and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The late twentieth century saw rapid growth in consumption and the expansion of retailing and services. This was reflected in the number and type of stores and locations, from regional shopping malls and out-of-town superstores to concept and flagship stores. Retail design became an essential part of its success by creating distinctive brands and formats. However, the economic recession in the developed world and competition for consumer goods from the developing world has led to a re-assessment of the growth-led conventions of the retail industry. In addition, the rapid advance of e-commerce and online shopping has created new challenges for physical stores and the communication and distribution of retail brands. The book will provide students, researchers and practitioners a detailed assessment of retail design, taking a distinctive global approach to place design practice and theory in context. Chapters are devoted to key issues in the visual and structural contribution of design to retail brands and format development, and to the role of design in communication. In the course of the book, the authors engage with problems of convergence between retailing and other services and between the physical and virtual worlds, and also changing patterns of use, re-use and ownership of retail spaces and buildings. Retail Design concerns designers and organisations but also defines its broader contribution to society, culture and economy.

Download or read book How to Increase Retail Sales with Store Design and Visual Merchandise Display written by Romeo Richards and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: - Have you ever wondered why some retail stores are constantly jam pack while others remain empty even in a crammed shopping mall? - Why do shoppers choose one retail store over the other? - What can you do to make your store the shoppers' choice? ***You might be wondering if this book is so good why I am selling it for such ridiculous amount. In the spirit of openness, it's because I need some reviews. Dear Friend, Why should you read this book when there are literally thousands book on store design and visual merchandise display on the market? Let me use a story to answer you... During my research for this book, I visited Harrods. Harrods attracts royalties, A-list Hollywood stars, heads of states and the "who is who" from around the world. So you can now imagine my anticipation at visiting one of the most famous retail stores in the world. I was hoping I will catch a glimpse of some Russian oligarch or Saudi prince. However, instead of Russian oligarchs or Middle Eastern Sheikhs, what caught my attention was a bus. I had bought the identical bus for my son from ASDA. It was the same bus in the same packaging. An odd question popped into my mind when I noticed the bus... Why is it that the same bus... In the same packaging... Probably made in the same factory in China... By the same people...sold in Harrods for almost three times the price it was sold for in ASDA? At first it seemed a mystery to me... But as I walked around Harrods the answer came to me. ASDA sells toy bus. Harrods sells classy toy bus even if it is made in the same factory in China. There is a difference and that difference is what this book is about. The price of a product is not determined by the cost of bringing that product to the marketplace as we are taught in business school... The price of a product is determined by: - Who is buying - How much they are willing to pay - How the product is sold to them The reason the same bus, made in the same factory in China was sold in Harrods for almost three times the price it was sold for in ASDA, comes down to who shop at Harrods and how the bus was sold to them. Cheapskate like me is not Harrods target market. Harrods know their target market is oil Sheikhs and Russian oligarchs whose focus is not on the products but on the manner in which the product is sold to them. This is a very important point I will like you to take away from this book. Most retailers fail because they ignore this simple but fundamental business success principle. The majority of retailers do not even know their target market. They open their stores, stock them with goods and hope that customers will show up simply because they are open for business. This is a big mistake! You must first decide who you want to sell to and then create a selling environment to attract those types of people. Your store design and visual merchandise display has to speak to your target market as they walk pass your store. In How to Increase Retail Sales With Store Design and Visual Merchandise Display, I teach you how to design a beautiful store and create an attractive visual merchandise displays that attract your ideal customers. The aim of a good store design and visual merchandise display is to: - Attract shoppers as they pass by a retail store - Entice them to enter the store - Retain them for long in the store - Persuade them to buy At the end of this book, you will learn how to achieve the above in your store.
