This project located in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, reimagines an old wholesale market as a space that blends fresh produce trade with agricultural education and community interaction. It offers not just food, but hands-on farming activities that teach residents about cultivation and sustainability. Green roofs, passive cooling, and rainwater reuse reduce heat and energy use, promoting a better urban climate. More than a market, it becomes a civic space where food systems, ecology, and daily life come together to shape a resilient a and inclusive future.
