| Architecture Design has completely evolved in what we see today, thanks to circulation technologies. Understanding the importance of circulation in a building is a vital part of architecture design evaluation, as nowadays they have not been the focus as much as the exterior design of the façade of the building. This paper focuses on the reflection of circulation spaces on the experience of the user respectively with the architecture composition of retail buildings. The aim of this study is to develop circulation guidelines to enhance the user experience using the senses within circulation spaces in retail buildings. However, design succession depends on circulation and that it is not always user efficient and could affect the experience of the user. It will be achieved through several steps. First, a theoretical study is conducted, where different types of circulation spaces and user experience is studied and their relationship with each other. This review is used in the applicable studies section, where a case study is analyzed by using behavior mapping as a tool and a questionnaire survey to be able to collect the opinions of a large number of group of people and to see how they perceive circulation spaces and its relation with user experience. With the aid of technology and the better versions of circulation, the world awaits to see the unlimited creativity a human brain can do with architecture design and the different future circulation spaces. | ||
