Word origin

The term 'arcade' originates from the Italian word 'arcata', which means a row of arches. It found its way into English in the late Middle Ages, reflecting the growing interest in classical architecture and design during the Renaissance. Initially, it referred specifically to a structure consisting of arches supported by columns. Over time, the term evolved to include a wide range of architectural styles and decorative elements, leading to the usage of 'arcaded' to describe spaces or features that incorporate arches. As shopping centers and public spaces began to emerge in the 19th century, the arcaded design became more popular, merging functionality with elegance.
