At the centre of our urban areas, there is the market spaces, arcades and department stores, which have always been the driving force for urban design and central spaces for socialisation. In the 21st century, the enclosed shopping mall concept, an initial American architectural invention, spread to metropolitan areas across the world, where it is an unparalleled engine of commerce. The problem with shopping malls, is that they, as Michael Beyard explains, suffer from island syndrome and tend to be oversized boxes with blank facades (Beyard et al. 2006: 5). The fundamental problem retail space produce in our urban context is that they are turned inwards towards vast climatic controlled spaces. This creates borders and a social space that has no interaction with the community it intends to serve. This dissertation investigates the manifestation of an alternative retail typology in the neighbourhood of Silverton, East of Pretoria. The proposal does not intend to recreate the mall in essence, but to follow the theoretical premise as guideline in order to produce an appropriate retail typology that is representative of the context of Silverton. Intending to produce an architecture that is contextual and inclusive the theoretical premise is a critical analysis of the "box-typology" that explores method of rethinking retail Architecture in the context of South Africa. Markte, arkades en afdelingswinkels word oor die algemeen in die middel van stedelike gebiede aangetref en dien as die dryfveer vir stedelike ontwerp en sosialisering. Die oorspronklik Amerikaans geinspireerde "ingeslote inkopiesentrum" argitektoniese konsep, het verder spoedig deur metropilitaanse gebiede reg deur w?reld versprei, waar dit 'n onvergelykbare dryfveer van handel geword het. Volgens Michael Beyard (2006:5) is die probleem met inkopiesentrums agter dat hulle mank gaan aan diev sogenaamde eiland sindroom en geneig is om oorgrote dose met le? fasades te wees. Die onderliggende probleem met kleinhandelspasies in stedelike gebiede is verder dat hulle inwaarts neig met streng beheerde klimaststoestande wat grense en 'n sosiale ruimte skep waar geen interaksie met die gemeenskep wat dit poog om te dien, kan plaasvind nie. Hierdie verhandeling ondersoek die manifestasie van 'n alternatiewe kleinhandel tipologie in die voorstelike gebied van Silverton, oos van Pretoria. Die voorstel wat gemaak word poog nie om 'n winkelsentrum te herskep nie, maarvolg die teoretoiese uitgangspunt as riglyn om 'n kleinhandel tipologie te skep wat verteenwoordigend is van die konteks van Silverton. Dit poog verder om 'n argitektuur te skep wat beide kontekstueel en inklusief is binne dieteoretiese uitgangspunt van 'n kritiese ontleding van die "boks-tipolgie wat alternatiese denke en metodes vankleinhandel Argitektuur binne die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks tot gevolg het.
