The shopping centre operator of Westfield has unveiled their vision for the shopping centre of the future by releasing a series of images to show what shoppers can look forward to in 2028.

The concept is called ‘Destination 2028’ and is depicted as a hyper-connected micro-city, driven by social interaction and creating its own community.

The images show how retail destinations might look in the next ten years. Features include hanging sensory gardens and AI-infused walkways in an environment designed to cater for a new generation of visitors and the growing importance they will place on experience, leisure, wellness and community.
