Architect Michael Wyetzner walks us through the fascinating history of shopping mall design from the early European models to the first modern mall to the present. He explains how malls are designed to overwhelm shoppers through psychological tricks like the "Gruen transfer." He takes a closer look at the biggest mall in the world, the Mall of America in Minnesota, and at malls that are incorporated into casinos and even airports. And you thought the shopping mall was on its way out!
