The focus of the project was to arrange a shelter for the existing marketplace area and to provide a complete infrastructure demanded by the market programme, together with new outdoor equipment. A new basement floor was designed to house the winter market and cooling facilities. The scheme on street level constitutes new communication routes between neighbouring programs and establishes a new street axis and a piazzeta together with the adjacent Centre Office Building. The market retail area in the atrium is flanked by two service buildings clad in red ceramic tiles and covered with an arched steel structure and a translucent polycarbonate canopy.
