The size of the store isn’t the only thing that’s changed — the supersized Target remodel also includes sustainable refrigerators, natural elements like plants and reclaimed wood, oversized windows for maximum light, and so much more. SOPA Images/LightRocket/Getty Images

Large Windows

A wall of giant, picturesque windows serve as the unofficial centerpiece to the new store design, and allow much more natural light to flow throughout the aisles. Courtesy of Target

Improved Layout

The new stores clocks in at nearly 150,000 square feet (over 20,000 square feet than the current average of Target’s stores), which means there’s even room to shop the brands you love, like Ulta , Apple , and more. Courtesy of Target

Sustainable Grocery Aisle

The use of natural CO2 refrigerants are meant to help lower emissions, which means the grocery section doesn’t just look cleaner — it’s more sustainable, too. Courtesy of Target

More Space

With Target’s Drive Up option, you can order your goodies ahead of time and have them delivered straight to your car upon pickup, and the supersized fulfillment space at the Texas location makes all of Target’s same-day services even easier to navigate. Courtesy of Target

Sustainable Solar Panels
