The design features an empathetic color scheme and [soothing shelving units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retail-environment) that are reduced in height to create a calm environment for visitors. By placing products on lower shelves, the pharmacy encourages interaction between consumers and sales people. This retail shop's feng shui themes are seen with a circular path that easily guides consumers through the laboratories, which are grouped into rounded spacial plans. The pharmacy's [pastel color scheme is calming](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experience-center-1) and encourages feelings of serenity. This pharmacy space is ultimately reflective of "the human side of the profession while allowing pharmacists to be more accessible to their patients." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Feng Shui Retail Design:** Opportunity for businesses to incorporate feng shui principles in their retail spaces to create a calm and inviting atmosphere for customers. - **Empathetic Color Schemes:** Potential for industries to utilize color psychology to evoke specific emotions and create a more pleasant experience for customers. - **Enhanced Customer Interaction:** Opportunity for industries to rethink the layout and shelving of their products to encourage more engagement and interaction between customers and sales personnel. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Retail:** Businesses in the retail industry can benefit from incorporating feng shui principles in their store designs to provide a relaxing and enjoyable shopping experience. - **Pharmaceutical:** Pharmaceutical companies and pharmacies can explore the use of empathetic color schemes and innovative store layouts to create a more welcoming and accessible environment for patients. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for interior design firms to specialize in creating feng shui-inspired spaces that promote tranquility and well-being for various industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Zen-Like Shopping Malls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zenlike-shopping-mall.md) - [Residential-Reflective Tranquil Clinics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aloop-clinic.md) - [Warm Medical Interior Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakv-clinic.md) - [Tranquil Clinic Interior Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palo-verde-aesthetic.md) - [Substantial Retail Environment Redesigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmetics-and-beauty-department.md) - [Elegantly Minimalist Retail Environments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retail-environment.md) - [Well-Lit Colorful Wellness Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorful-wellness-studio.md) - [Hospitality-Inspired Wellness Centers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remedy-place1.md) - [Tranquil Retail Environments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neom-wellbeing.md)
