This article covered eight narrow-lot stores to study their designing theory and techniques. Designing very small interiors is often very hard and demands creativity of the designers in terms of zoning, traffic, ergonomics, and so on. Taking DIEGO, a collar keeper shop, for example, used view-controlling film on the glass of showcases of the shop, so shoppers can see through the case only when they stand just in front of the showcase and this effect interest passers-by a lot. And, you readers will find a column titled "Designing Technique for Small Commercial Projects", which shows that Japan's tradition of small space activity trains people's sense and ability for small interiors.
