Описание: At the beginning of the 20th century, the department store developed from markets and urban arcades, from which the shopping mall evolved in the post-war period. The operators of department stores and shopping centers are coming under increasing pressure from the competi - tion of the continuously growing internet trade. By the same token, however, there is also an increasing tendency for the internet trade to become involved with real shops. The challenge is to optimize the quality of the customers stay. This is accomplished by the interspersing of the offer by cultural institutions, a variety of dining opportunities and exciting leisure activities. The time spent in a depart - ment store or a shopping center must be conceived as an experience, separate from the consumption of goods, which engages all the senses. Which is where architectural quality as well as a targeted design can play an increas - ingly important role

Описание: This two-volume set is an essential reference work dedicated to clock companies that have kept time for us from the late 1600s through the early 2000s. The comprehensive text explores mechanical and electric clock companies; clock retail and part supplier firms; clock related foundry companies; clock label printers; and trademarks, trade names, and brand names. Volume One covers several hundred companies with biographical entries and histories, augmented with over 400 trademarks and lists of their trade names. Clock companies from the U.S. and 20 countries around the globe are discussed. Volume Two contains appendices including clock trade names that cross-reference trademarks, trade names, and brand names alphabetically by text and symbols to the company using them; clock patent time lines; production time lines encompassing over 4,000 company names with dates in business and addresses; and more. This is an absolute must-have for collectors, clock enthusiasts, and those that adore the essence of time.
