Finally, we reach the conclusions: First, the brand lifestyle shop provides space for both brands and consumers to communicate with each other. Second, in brand lifestyle shop there is a special space which is different from the other commercial space. The existence of this special space makes brand lifestyle shop more personalized and more specialized, and makes the customers have more interesting when they are shopping. Third, compared with the sales space, the non-sales space accounts for a larger proportion. Fourth, in spatial representation, interaction plays a role in connecting brands with consumers. Fifth, brand lifestyle shop has the same spatial concept, but it has different application and embodiment in each case. Each brand lifestyle shop has its own unique features.

Some general characteristics were significantly different by lifestyles. The society-oriented lifestyle was significantly higher in proportions of men and overweight. The trend-oriented lifestyle was significantly younger and spent more monthly allowance. Health-oriented lifestyle was older. The levels of health belief variables and health behavior practices significantly differed by lifestyles. Overall the health-oriented lifestyle showed more desirable levels of health belief variables and health behavior practice in various health behavior areas compared to the other lifestyles, whereas the society-oriented lifestyle was found the other way.
