This document summarizes the research and design process for a new butchery shop with a tasting area. It includes floor plans and sections of the proposed design layout, with separate areas for selling fresh and packaged meats/wines, a cashier counter, and a dedicated space for tasting foods. Mood boards and references are provided to illustrate design elements like wood, copper, lighting, and product displays. Interviews with the owner of an existing butcher shop provided insights into operations, customer needs, and challenges facing traditional shops. The proposed design aims to enhance the customer experience while maintaining the core functions of a butcher.

16. Q&A
1.Daily work: How many hours you work?
Ten hours
2.How many years this shop have opening?
This shop has more than one century, 103-104 years.
3.The customer base? (target group, age,...etc.)
Not one in particular, all types.
4.When did you last renovated this shop?
In 1980
5.Which type of meat is most selling/ most selling product in your butchery?
Beef.
Background Part

17. Q&A
1.Which part you want improve in this shop?
Space: about freeze meat , storage goods,...etc.
People: short-hand
I haven't personally designed this shop, I found it, but it's perfectly conceived, and it's
suitable for working from one to five persons.
The persons who designed it didn't fail anything.
2.Strengths and weakness in this shop?
Working environment: lighting, location, work movement, material in interior,...etc.
Product: quality or price
Strenghts: the cold storage is perfectly conceived, could contain less, more or much more
meat. No weakness.
3. How do you see future of this shop?
Same as future of all butcher's shops: going to end after our generation.
Politics are in favour of supermarkets. The last decree made by Mario Monti liberalized
opening times, so supermarked are open 7 days by 7 until 11 pm, a small shop will never be
able to do those openings and suffers.
The buyers do the shopping on sunday and not during the week because they know that
supermarkets are opened on sunday.

18. Q&A
4.If you have opportunity, did you want add the taste experience to your customers?
No I don't see that. Recently some shops did that, they cut a chop and cook it.
They do it and it could work, but I don't see that: butcher's shop should remain butcher's
shop and should not mix with cooking.
5.How it's work, the progress about prepare meat and survive way?
(from merchandise purchases to survive your customers)
From the point of view of the architecture of the store it takes a particular organization?
When comes the meat bone, you bone, work, make various cuts.
From the back come out 9 cuts, from a calf 35 cuts, from a half-carcass of beef even 40.
To move forward you have to know the meat, you can not improvise.
It does not take a particular organization of the store, only the table boning.
