3. Concept
We chose to propose a new art shop because Taylor’s University Lakeside Campus art students are lack of
art materials and the art materials sold in the bookshops are limited in quantity. The reason why we chose
this site to propose the new art shop is because it is a strategic location connecting both the car park and
Syopz mall. It is also one of the most happening places. Besides, it is an empty space and to make the space
more useful, we chose to propose a new art shop. This site is 15 x 13m. This new art shop will
have an industrial concept where most of the materials used to build this shop will be raw materials such as
bricks, and woods to have the industrial feel.

4. Our site

5. Analysis
This 15 x 13m site is an empty space in Syopz Mall connecting the car park and Syopz mall. This empty
space is not fully used and it is a waste to leave this empty space empty without using it to the fullest. Many
students and staff pass by this place everyday making it one of the most happening places with many people
passing by since it is located near the car park.

6. Benefits
 Strategic location
 Located in Syopz Mall
 Happening Place
 Many passerby everyday
 Art students do not need to travel far away to get art materials
 Art materials are easier to get.
 More quantity of art materials

7. Disadvantages
 Located at the lowest floor of Syopz Mall
 Items might be expensive

8. Floor Plan
This is the floor plan of the art shop. This shop consists of 2 doors, 10 windows, several racks and
shelves, counters and chairs.
