VOÔAR

Type: International competition for a market hall
Size: -
Location: - (open)
Team: Alexandre Carpentier, Sandrine Da Costa
Date: December 2011
Award: selected 2nd round

The dematerialization of the traditional market hall allows us to release the ground space, offering a variety of programs: which preserves the social link between the storekeeper and the customer, the artists and the public, the sportsmen and the spectators. The assembly of modules inflated with helium creates an autonomous and flexible roof, which slightly floats without any massive transformation of the existing site.

The use of recycled materials collected directly on site reduces the surrounding pollution and creates urban landmarks, symbols for the new identity of the place.
