Abstract

As the trading areas for traditional markets are shrinking, various suggestions have been proposed to vitalize the traditional market. Recently, policies designed to support young merchants and information and communication technology design convergence have been launched. Additional measures are still needed, though, for the improvement of merchant work and service environments in which activities other than sales can be supported. Accordingly, the purpose of the present study is to present a multifunctional furniture configuration strategy optimized for the activities and needs of merchants of multiple business types in the traditional market. The research methods for the present study are as follows: First, the activities of merchants in traditional markets and the characteristics of multifunctional furniture were reviewed. Second, the most frequently used space and furniture arrangements for the activities of merchants of multiple business types were identified through an open-type survey. Lastly, multifunctional furniture configuration strategies bestsuited for the activities and needs of merchants of multiple business types were determined. The results of the present study show the following furniture configurations to be most optimal: stand+storage and chair+table for fruit stores; stand+extension, stand+stool, and chair+stool for vegetable stores,; stand+movable stand and chair+desk for rice and nut products stores; and lastly, stand+storage+extension and table+extension for Stockfish stores.
