I was struggling to find theories because I was thinking it had to be philosophies like Freud of Marx or something. Now that I know it can be the theory of branding or advertising or marketing instead of philosophers it makes a lot more sense and I think my research will now expand to more appropriate material.
I'm going to talk to people on interior design and email the tutor to find out if they know any appropriate people or books that are on the psychology of retail design. Richard agreed this would be a good action to take.
Richard said to look at a graduating graphic design students dissertation as hers was on Ikea.
