International design practice Edia Studio Lay like a wave Domed Ceiling with green details market Quintana Ruo, in Mexico.
The 7,700-class meter (82,882-class foot) Mercado Nicholas Bravo is characterized by a series of inverted umbrella shapes that go above the individual market stalls on the 3.2-akad site on the Yukatan Peninsula.
“The project is a will for our commitment to a flexible architectural approach, preference construction techniques and materials that ensure minimum maintenance throughout the building’s lifetime,” Edia StudioWhich has offices in London and Mexico City.
Complete in 2024 is dedicated to empowering the local community through market art and crafts and at the same time Maya is a place to give fresh yield to tourists visiting archaeological sites.
The undeveloped Mexican provides a link among the market tourism industry and 5,000 Nicholas Bravo residents to improve the municipalities.
The studio arranged 50 market stalls by 8-meter (26-foot by 26-foot) in 14 enclosed blocks.
Doubling as a community center for cultural programs and educational workshops, the building was constructed with four elements: a mild steel structure, reinforced convert slabs and parapets, concrete blocks and clay bricks.
Masonry and concrete are stained with a natural sand color that closes the green tone of the trim and the light olives of the market doors, which continues the colors of the surrounding palm trees throughout the market.
Like a tree canopy, raised over the market stalls, the ceiling made from a series of hyperbolic perboloid forms – ceilings – is broken by only two planted courtyards.
“It not only reflects our dedication to architectural aesthetics and form-finding for structural integrity, but also integrates a biofilic design philosophy, which basically combines the structure with its natural surroundings,” the studio said.
Earthen bricks are placed in the metal structure, which adjust the multi-directional curvature of the roof classes.
Courses move in alternative directions, forming a texture grid within diagonal structural lines.
Raising at the corners, the roof directs rainwater for interior downspots, which drives the columns instead of a circumference gutter system.
The columns are made of four square metal pieces that are gangraped together in a light cluster.
The block is divided into diagonally four symmetrical triangles that can be configured in display space, kitchen and toilet.
Brick walkways exit under the roof and mark the square garden that follow the rhythm of market stalls.
MERCADO Nicolás Bravo Aidia is the latest in the designs of ceiling structures like the sails in the Mexico. First, the studio raised a zig-zag metal roof Sports grandstand And top one Community centre With a series of concrete barrels, both in Oxaca.
Team also completed an ideological design for one Tulum train station Shaded by a curved, shell -like lattice roof.
