Text description provided by the architects. The project is located in Xiafu Village, Diankou. The original market was first built by the local government in 2003, covering an area of 700 m². The market was the starting point for the villagers’ daily life and the place for trade and communication. Every day from 5 a.m. to 8 a.m., the villagers gathered here to trade crops and livestock, and exchanged goods. The market was also the largest and the most important public building in the village.
