    SYNOPSIS OF THESIS

    TOPIC
    FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT CENTRE

    INTRODUCTION:

    Family Entertainment Centre (FEC) can be defined as family-oriented


    entertainment destinations. These centres combine shopping and recreation
    with entertainment to form an overall experience. Retail needs
    entertainment to draw people in and entertainment needs retail to support
    the overall operation.
    FECs are created on the fundamental of partnership between retail and
    entertainment. Combinations of this partnership provide variations of FECs
    which can be adopted depending on the culture and heritage of the city.

    HISTORY:
    FECs are essentially a converged outgrowth of theme
    restaurants that increasingly developed their in-house amusement features, small-scale
    amusement parks needing more offerings than just a few rides and midway games, and
    diversifying formerly one-attraction venues (water parks, skate parks, billiard
    halls, bowling alleys, and so on). All three categories have moved over several decades
    continually toward stock, popular entertainment solutions supplied by third-party
    vendors. Among the earliest of the themed restaurants to become known more for
    family entertainment than food was Chuck E. Cheese's, a pizza restaurant founded in
    1977 in San Jose, California.
    Project idea:

    In order to provide better entertainment and shopping


    facilities to tourists (both domestic and foreign) in vijayawada,
    it was suggested that an integrated system such as an Family

    Entertainment Center (FEC) should be developed in major


    cities . The citie have reasonable shopping and entertainment
    facilities like amusement parks etc. However, there is no
    integrated centre where the visitors can take the advantage of
    entertainment as well as retail shopping.
    The facilities envisaged to be provided to the visitors of the
    FECs are retail stores, theme/amusement parks, multiplexes,
    restaurants etc. In addition to these facilities which may be
    common to all FECs, city/district specific components may also
    be added .
    Characteristics:

    The goal of a FEC for a city or developer is, perhaps, to


    create tax revenue, or to sell food, or merchandise, but for
    the visitor the overriding concept is to have fun.
    Entertainment is the draw and a large part of what creates
    the unique experience of the centre.
    A FEC has to be created as a centre with the right balance of
    retail and entertainment. If the centre contained too much
    retail it read to the visitor as an ordinary shopping mall,
    conversely, if there were too many entertainment options
    people forget to make purchases.
    AIM:
    To design a family entertainment centre for vijayawada near
    amaravathi ,the new capital of andhra pradesh which is in a track
    to development and also in a proposal in vijayawada which is
    named as city square.

    etc
    It is even be considered to be the part of the market for some of the

    to provide commercial spaces as well as interactive and entertainment
    spaces.
