Abstract
Glass as a material is increasingly found in the modern interiors of shopping malls. Considering that the design of
every commercial building aims to attract the potential buyer with its exclusivity, transparency, neatness, and
attractiveness when displaying the products, glass is becoming a more common material that is used in arranging both
the window and the interior itself in shops and shopping malls. How is represented and used glass in the interiors of
commercial buildings and in what type and form it appears, is researched by analyzing many different shops in two
shopping centers from the area of the capital of the Republic of North Macedonia, Skopje, which were built in different
periods from 20th and 21st century. It is assumed that over time, the type, shape, and appearance of glass changed in
many different segments in trade facilities. This paper will answer what type of glass, structure, way of processing,
thickness; shape, and purpose of glass that were used in different periods in shopping spaces.
The research methods used in this paper are the qualitative method, the real analysis and the productive analysis, the
method of observation and comparison, the generalization method, and the method of measuring in the stores.
