The effect of store interior design on branding

This study aims to investigate the effect of store interior design on branding. The target is to approach to the issue of brand from a multi-disciplinary perspective by taking into consideration both graphical and interior design. Brand is a corporate identity; therefore, it is not possible to differentiate design of the store from the identity at all. For this reason, a case study was conducted for one of the most prestigious brands in Turkey, Vakko, and it is understood that brand and space complements each other. In addition to this, store atmosphere also makes a significant contribution to the branding the space. S-O-R paradigm, which is the base of this study also supports the argument by showing using same elements in different stores make a contribution to branding the space.
