variable dimension installation
©2008
This variable dimension installation is based upon information acquired from CBL’s corporate and individual mall websites. It includes photographs, text, a legend, chart/spreadsheets, and demographic target maps from malls. The color palate for this installation is derivative of Sears’ vinyl siding options.
*The term regional is defined as belonging to or typical of a particular geographic region, or typical of, or limited to a particular area of a country. Paradoxically the term regional mall denotes a shopping mall designed to service a broad area with greater than 400,000sqft of retail space and offers a wider selection of stores not a mall who’s products/services are derivative of those regionally significant, rather based upon a national standard/formula.
