The Design

About Wugu Market Diseño de interiores de mercado

El Mercado de Wugu es un mercado público moderno situado en Nuevo Taipéi, Taiwán. El espacio, de 2327 metros cuadrados, ocupa la planta baja de un aparcamiento de varios niveles anteriormente en desuso. Los puestos se dividen en zonas de alimentos crudos y cocinados para simplificar la gestión y el control higiénico. El área de productos frescos cuenta con vitrinas refrigeradas y una zona de procesamiento de carne a baja temperatura. En el área de comida cocinada se emplea un sistema electrostático de extracción de humos para purificar el aire. El pavimento está revestido con baldosas antideslizantes. Los tonos naturales del cemento y las celosías con vetas de madera evocan los brotes de bambú verde y los bosques de bambú característicos de la zona.
