That shopping centres have become far more than they were is not in debate. The rise of mixed-use has become the de facto for any new scheme and the introduction of other use types into existing centres is now the priority for assets. Yet while the densification of projects to add commercial space, residential, health and well-being, leisure and even logistics has become well-established, many are now giving thought to what comes next. After all, consumer tastes and trends have driven much of the current generation of destinations, so surely they will continue to do so.

2. Can you future-proof?

3. What comes next?
Do you see break-out new uses on the horizon?
