A History of Visual Merchandising in Retail Stores
By Sarah Marie


The Development of Arcades
The second step in the evolution process occurred in Europe during the beginning of the 19th century with the development of arcades. Arcades, or passages, were covered streets that were constructed using iron and glass. Historically, they can be traced back to bazaars of the Arabian Peninsula and Asia Minor. The experimentation with new materials greatly improved the esthetic qualities of the shops that were housed within the arcades. The main features of the arcades were their glass skylights, which often stretched the entire length of the passageway. The skylights created a completely enclosed, visually stimulating shopping environment. Unfortunately, the skylights were extremely expensive and caused many technical difficulties. Also, the visually appealing shopping area that the arcades created outside, usually did not extend to inside of the shops. Therefore, the arcades became mainly associated with observers who were just out to walk around - not necessarily shop.
