It is neither mine nor yours, it is both mine and yours.

Red Hook Park New Marketplace

Designed by Archtiecture for humanity, this building complex is supposed to give the vendors a clean and ap- proved infrastructure for their market activities. Build- ing year was supposed to be 2011 but as for now, the pro- ject is still waiting to be con- structed.

This project is an inspiration for me on how interaction over borders have been a part in the architectural process.

It is neither mine nor yours, it is both mine and yours. This project is about how a public space is maintained and the intriguing relationship between the contrasts of a private and a public space; the home and a market hall.

Dharavi in the middle of Mumbai is a buzzing area of activity and life. The density is at an extreme level making free land a high valued resource. Even so, there are some left over areas lost in this intense urban fabric, currently used mainly as garbage dumps. The intention in this project is to fill one of these places with life and quality.

This area is an area of great polarity and contrasts. Some very rich, and some very poor share the same streets and one need they all have in common is trade. Shops line almost every street and vendors are selling there goods on the streets. A market hall will attract both permanent sellers and street vendors, but also address those who would like to sell permanently for shorter periods of time due to the dynamic lifecircle of a year.

Dharavi consists of many neighbourhoods and communities taking care of their common spaces.

Since the whole area is under planning for reconstruction, the maintenance of some areas is poor. One site, in the dead center of Dharavi, has interesting potential. It is an open field supposed to work as a playground for two schools, and a public activity space. The activity is however limited to mainly parking, transport through and trash dumping. To secure the maintanence of the area residential units will be available on the site, giving opportunities for those who want to progress in a living public area.

Storefront for art and architecture

Finished in 1982 this gallery by Stephen Holl situated in New York. The invention is to make the alleyway part of the exhibition room by opening panels in different ways.

The dynamics of this project is great where the gallery is not much more than a wall while closed, but encourages the street to become a part of the exhibitions held.

Al-Hamidiyah Souq

This 400 meter long market hall is located in central Da- mascus and serves as the main trading space of the in- ner city. The building was first erected in 1780 to be expand- ed in 1884 and holds many shops, restaurants and other market activities.

The most interesting part of this building, I think, is the re- lation between the top floor, where people live, and the ground floor, where they sell goods. the street is covered by a roof to create a climate sheltered environment.

Rotterdam Market Hall

This iconic building, by

MVRDV, is projected to be fin- ished in 2014. It combines a market place with offices and living facilities.

An input from this project is how they probably have tak- en inspiration from traditional souqs and put it in a modern context. This is however a very westernized approach and needs to be considered carefully before applying it to the conditions of Dharavi.
