Abstract

A shoppi_$ng ce_$nte_$r i_$s a group of re_$tai_$le_$rs and othe_$r comme_$rci_$al e_$stabli_$shme_$nts that plan, de_$ve_$lop, construct, own, and manage_$ a si_$ngle_$ prope_$rty. Parki_$ng i_$s also provi_$de_$d on the_$ prope_$rty. The_$ purpose_$ and si_$ze_$ of a shoppi_$ng ce_$nte_$r are_$ ge_$ne_$rally de_$te_$rmi_$ne_$d by the_$ characte_$ri_$sti_$cs of the_$ marke_$t i_$t se_$rve_$s. Tropi_$cal archi_$te_$cture_$ i_$s a bui_$ldi_$ng conce_$pt that se_$e_$ks to addre_$ss tropi_$cal cli_$mate_$s. Tropi_$cal cli_$mate_$s typi_$cally occur i_$n e_$quatori_$al re_$gi_$ons wi_$th hot te_$mpe_$rature_$s, humi_$di_$ty, hi_$gh rai_$nfall, and so on. Bui_$ldi_$ngs wi_$th thi_$s conce_$pt wi_$ll pay atte_$nti_$on to factors such as spati_$al planni_$ng, ai_$r ci_$rculati_$on, li_$ghti_$ng, and the_$ mate_$ri_$als use_$d to support the_$se_$ condi_$ti_$ons. Thus, re_$si_$de_$nts ne_$e_$d not worry about tropi_$cal we_$athe_$r condi_$ti_$ons be_$cause_$ the_$ re_$si_$de_$nce_$ i_$tse_$lf has adapte_$d to provi_$de_$ the_$ be_$st comfort.
