About Marche Vison Продовольчий ринок

Marche Vison — це продовольчий ринок, збудований у місті Такі, префектура Міє, Японія. Комплекс поділено на чотири крила, розташовані під великими вигнутими дахами. Ступінчасті плити з'єднані пандусами, а крок дерев'яних каркасів вирівняно так, щоб утворити єдиний безперервний простір. Під дахами розміщені менші об'єми, що створюють пішохідну зону з провулків і площ. Відкритий простір під дахами дозволяє відвідувачам відчувати зв'язок із порами року та зменшує споживання енергії. Дощ стікає з карнизів, утворюючи завісу, а місцеві дерев'яні жалюзі звернені до швидкісної автомагістралі.

Production Technology
The building is divided into four wings, however, the staircase-like slabs are connected by slopes, and the pitch of the wooden frames is continuously aligned to ensure a unified space. The continuous shape from the hill in front of the building to the large roof draws the eye upward, creating an expansive landscape. Several smaller volumes are placed beneath the large roof, generating a diverse walking area with a maze-like network of alleys and plazas.
Design Challenge
Striking a balance between commercial feasibility and preserving the site's unique 'genius loci' was the greatest challenge in this design. We aimed to create a landscape integrating seamlessly with the promotion of local industry while ensuring sustainable prosperity. The incorporation of the natural surroundings posed challenges, as considerations such as signage and lighting could disrupt the natural aesthetic. Such considerations required powerful vision and acute attention to detail.
Research
Commerce is ever-evolving and long-term control over its design is nearly impossible. Thus, we chose to disentangle the commercial timeline from that of the landscape. By creating two distinct layers - one of the large roofs and another of small retail boxes, we aim to balance the slowly changing landscape with the dynamism needed in commerce to maintain constant freshness. As commercial trends shift, our expansive roofs stand ready to accommodate these changes and stand the test of time.
Inspiration
Rain and sunshine are vital elements that nurture a multitude of crops. Our expansive roofs, designed with the concept of the water cycle in mind, symbolize the absorption of energy through a curved surface extending over the ground. The structures supporting these roofs are inspired by the repetitive torii gates at the Akone Yashiro Shrine, located within the precincts of the Ise Grand Shrine. These gates stand as a symbol of prayers for abundant harvests, rich fishing yields, and thriving businesses. This symbolism is particularly fitting for a facility that focuses on promoting local produce.
Project Duration
It opened in 2021 as part of Vison in Taki town, Mie prefecture, Japan.
Operation Flow
Our facility's expansive roofs cover an open-air space underneath, allowing visitors to reconnect with the changing seasons, often overlooked in modern retail. With this simple approach, the design reduces energy consumption to address environmental concerns. Raindrops descend regularly from the eaves, creating a 'rain curtain'. Local wooden louvres are incorporated on the side facing the expressway, adding warmth and harmony. We aim to protect and share the natural region's beauty, promoting sustainable preservation.
