PDG Architects designs monolithic green roof for Antalya bazaar
"The project offers a new understanding of the market by collecting all this use under one roof," said PDG Architects, describing the project. The new bazaar will be the first to set an example for Turkey with regards to promoting organic product manufacturers and direct delivery to consumers.
The monolithic roof cover, inspired by the natural landscape of the region surrounded by mountain ranges, has been designed to incorporate users from different directions, drawing them together into the area.
Year-round use
Moreover, the sheltered area allows a use in every season - the intake of natural light into the space has been increased and the air circulation has been strengthened.
In the project, various organic food and local textile products from Turkey's different regions will be sold. The area will accommodate 76 shops, varying in size between 5-20 square metres.
The architects also designed a warehouse and cold storage for special products for each shop. The bazaar will also feature eating and drinking areas and management units for visitors in squares.
