Reversed Grand Aisle

WEEK 40 – Horn Lake Schnucks Kroger, Set I

 

Finally for today, a look from the back of the “grand aisle” back up toward the front wall and including everything we've already seen today, with the produce department on the left and deli and bakery on the right. You'll note that the nice dark wood flooring exists only in produce, but that other two-toned beige tile pattern that Kroger put in for the rest of this area isn't too shabby, either.

 

Going back to my layout argument for just a moment... I think that the right-aligned layout I mentioned has merit, not only because I'm biased toward it (though that does play a part, lol!) but also because I remember seeing at one point some sort of psychological affirmation claiming that because most shoppers are right-handed, taking them around the store in a counter-clockwise circuit makes sense. Meanwhile, my roommate says that where he's from, pretty much all of the stores are left-aligned, so Oxford's Kroger feels really odd to him, while the Oxford Walmart, which I consider “reversed,” feels normal. What's your take on all this?

 

More from the Horn Lake Seessel's-Schnucks-Kroger is coming your way in two weeks! In the meantime, next week – seeing the remodel results at the Horn Lake Arby's...

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)
