Proposal for a new form of public market in the city centre of Tallinn, Estonia.

The project investigates the potentials of the public market to serve as an attractor to supplementary functions and to become a concentration of urban activity within the condition of urban shrinkage. The design challenge lies in the successful integration of the typology of the outdoor market and its ´public character´ with additional program. To form a three dimensional fabric, without degrading to the simulated public environment of the mall.
