İnsanlar para karşılığında hizmet almaya başladığı dönemlerden beri alışveriş yapmaktadır. İlk dönemlerde hanlar ve pazar yerlerinde gerçekleştirilen alışveriş aktivitesi, zamanla alışveriş merkezi ve cadde mağazalara evrilmiştir. Bugün, insanların sosyo ekonomik kültürleri, yaşam şekilleri ve birçok değişkene bağlı olan mağaza kategorileri mevcuttur. Lüks markalar ve lüks mağazalar da bu kategori içerisinde yer almaktadır. Lüks markaların; başarılı marka imajını güçlendirmek ve müşteri kalitesini en üst seviyeye çıkartmak için bir takım pazarlama stratejileri bulunmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, flagship mağazalar, en çarpıcı stratejilerden birisidir. Aynı zamanda, bu mağazalar mimari özellikleriyle kentsel ölçeğe de büyük katkı sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışma kapsamında lüks perakende sektörünün öncülerinden olan Omotesando Caddesi örneği incelenmiştir. Araştırma sırasında, internet sitelerinde yer alan görsellerden yararlanılmış ve nitel bir araştırma yöntemi olan görsel veri analiz tekniği kullanılmıştır. Omotesando Caddesi, Tokyo/Japonya’da bulunan ve lüks mağazaların varlığı ile bilinen bir yerleşkedir. Bunun yanı sıra, Japon perakende sektöründeki gelişmeler de çalışmaya katkı sağlamıştır. Çalışma, lüks markaların flagship mağazalarının kent ölçeğine katkısı konusunda bakış açısı sunması nedeni ile özgün olmaktadır.

Shopping activity first started out with khans and bazaars, which were later replaced by shopping malls and street stores. Today, there are store types that people can choose according to their socio-economic status, lifestyles, and many variables. Luxury brands and their stores are also included in this category. There are some marketing strategies that luxury brands in this category employ in order to be successful brand, strengthen their brand image, and keep customer quality at the highest level. In this sense, flagship stores are among the most significant aspects of these strategies. These stores also contribute greatly to the urban scale with their architectural characteristics.
