Decor Guide for Commissary Store Facilities.

The guide presents interior commissary store decor schemes to be used by commissary officers and facilities engineers when improving and modernizing Army commissary facilities. These decor schemes are intended to create a shopping atmosphere by using 'functional decor'; that is, decor that improves the overall appearance of the commissary facility and makes shopping more efficient and satisfying. The decor schemes accomplish this by using color to create and emphasize the character of each department within the commissary store. The decor schemes tend to make the total store more understandable and facilitate identification of the departments, allowing customers to locate and select desired merchandise more quickly. By simplifying the shopping environment, the schemes allow the merchandise to be the focal point of the store. The designs focus on improvement of existing facilities, but the concepts and items listed are adaptable and can be used effectively to decorate new facilities.
