In the past two years, the vegetable market seems to be particularly popular. First, the Markthal colorful vegetable market in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, like a fashion art gallery, and then the Beijing Sanyuanli Vegetable Market, which is said to be able to "buy the whole world" and frequently collide with celebrities... The circle of friends has been browsed several times respectively...
These are all upgrades the vegetable market to a level of fashion and sensory experience. Let's just imagine: Why is the vegetable market the most popular place in the city? Just because the price is cheap, daily needs, and the choices are diverse?

Each vegetable market,
Because of everyone's collaboration,

As the improvement of urban functions, on the road to iterative and upgrading of vegetable markets, there is a strategy to strengthen its functions as a city vitality and communication platform, and to downplay the traditional functions of its food gathering place.
This is the Taipei Xinfu Market that I will introduce to you today.
is different from the real vegetable market mentioned in the first two. This 80-year-old project is now showing off its new look. After completing the restoration project, it has transformed into a diverse composite space "Shinfu Town Cultural Market U-mkt" that brings together exhibition venues, classrooms, studios, and cafes. It has become a new trend of check-in for new Taiwanese literary youths.
However, no matter what new and old forms, the core spirit of the new rich market has not changed. That is to become the core of the exchange and connection between nature and urban environment, and maintain the development of local culture and social life for residents. "
The idea of this may also be the concept that every urban renewal, regional transformation, and renovation of old houses should uphold.
not just work together
The focus is on living together
0 The role of the vegetable market in local culture and social life, "Shintocho Cultural Market U-mkt" has a deep understanding and eager expectations.
For this reason, around the horseshoe-shaped (U-shaped) space in the central patio of the building, there is a bright and lively co-study studio, exhibition space, teaching kitchen, lecture classroom and tomorrow's cafe dining space with ancient door frames. It hopes to use characters, markets, and land as the model, and use the transmission of cooking, culture and local crafts as a medium to become a shared knowledge platform in Taipei 0,000 region.
Cross-border Studio
In order to better create the regeneration of the old market based on traditional culture, U-mkt has opened up an entry platform where different cross-border creativity can communicate and link with each other. The "small studio" model is suitable for office, exhibition or studio use, and is available for entry every year. "Co-Studio" provides a free and relaxed work space for people with flexible work arrangements where different ideas can collide. In order to protect historic buildings, the space decoration uses light materials that are easy to disassemble, so that they can live with old buildings.
Food Culture Learning Together
Reshape regional life by digging deep into the essence of traditional food culture, which can be said to be the most unique feature of U-mkt. To this end, two learning spaces are set up here: " dining table school" and "Lianzi Classroom". Through thematic and series of program arrangements, the knowledge experience inside and outside the vegetable market is brought in, reshaping the relationship between people and life, while also bringing the relationship between people closer.
For example, several topic courses offered here. Good food science: Re-analyze the relationship between good food and good life. Hand-Luxue: Invite craftsmen from food and crafts to convey technology and share stories, providing inspiration for creative transformation and cultural cultivation.Terroir: Study the changes in terroir and cultural changes in the region and think about the future development path of the region. Urbanism: Explore the possibilities of regional regeneration and activation through the perspectives of urbanism and architecture.
In addition, for children in the region, U-mkt "Little Market People Training Program" uses phased courses, workshops, camps and other methods to make the market an important living environment for children to think and grow, and also injects a steady stream of new vitality into the exploration of vegetable markets and local symbiotic values.
interactive permanent exhibition
From photography, video device and new media interactive works display, to outdoor painted landscape and space regeneration, local youth and creative round table discussion, to fruit and vegetable creation workshops, meal production parent-child activities, popular private kitchen and cooking classes, opening concerts... Various permanent exhibition activities not only attract people with old market memories to nostalgia, but also attract a large number of young people to pay attention to the issues of local food culture and regional regeneration, and use this to experience new possibilities for life.
Tomorrow Coffee MOTCafé
Utilizes the U-shaped space side, Taiwan coffee chain Tomorrow Coffee MOT Café settles here, integrating regional cultural characteristics into the space design.
For example, hand-woven steamer lanterns hanging down from the high ceiling, U-shaped tables in U-shaped space, an old gliding window, a burning wall with historical traces... In conjunction with the local cultural characteristics, the new life of the old place is slowly told here.
New space in the old market,
Cultural place that spans time and space
is known as the "most beautiful vegetable market in Taipei". It is located in the once most prosperous place in Taipei - Mengjia (near the MRT station in Wanhua District Longshan Temple ). The market was completed in 1935. It was the only remaining case in which the public market at that time and the existing Japanese-Japanese period showed new sanitation policies (such as the requirement to open vents for roofs, etc.) and modern architectural styles.
Xinfu market was once the focus of Wanhua residents' lives in the 1950s. However, with the prosperity of the Huannan Market and its peripheral market, customers were lost, and the overall decline of the traditional market eventually declined. Until 2006, Xinfu Market Construction was designated as a monument by the municipal government, and the monument restoration project was completed in 2013.
Subsequently, Zhongtai Construction, a well-known construction company in Taiwan, obtained nine years of operating rights in Xinfu Market. As part of the "Urban Fruit Plan" of its non-profit organization Zhongtai Architecture Culture and Art Foundation, it carried out the activation and operation of cultural assets with "food education", "cultural promotion" and "regional regeneration" as the core.
In terms of space use planning, Xinfu Cultural Market introduces innovative elements such as cities, architecture, art, design, and culture, and sets up dining table schools, classrooms in alleys, exhibition spaces, permanent exhibitions in market history, creative collaboration spaces, cultural and creative offices, and compound catering spaces, etc., so that market buildings can be converted into places for food education, bases for discussion on local social issues, and a communication platform connecting local and external communities.
New and old users and different eras coexist in it, making the new space in the old market a door, which not only responds to local society, but also connects outsiders. The two live together and communicate closely, and then create a unique and friendly public place in terms of understanding each other.
The new and old dialogues are in the air,
The open flow space with ancient flavor
The most characteristic of the ancient monument "Xinfu Market" is its horseshoe-shaped building body, with a large number of windows on the exterior wall and a patio in the middle, which not only ensures lighting but also meets ventilation needs. The interior is mainly made of wood Japanese style, with many wooden stalls placed in it.
During the process of building renovation, such characteristics have been retained and exerted. The architect implanted two translucent thick walls in the space, using their lines to highlight the original horseshoe-shaped spatial outline, retaining the original high windows that can adjust the air circulation of the upper and lower mezzanines.At the same time, the thick wall itself also has the functions of pipeline storage, lighting and display, and thus creates a clear distinction between exhibition activities, office use and visiting space.
Use light wood structure, the architect has built a new wall with a complete structure and extremely light weight. It does not need to touch the structure of the original monument to be established, so that visitors can carefully savor the structure of the original monument with minimal interference, and enjoy an open, transparent and smooth spatial experience.
In addition, the open space on the south side of the museum is a new half-moon building in the form of a clear water concrete building, which is not only a public service facility, but also a part of the office space, with the intention of building it into a new cultural base in the western district of Taipei.
The most special thing is that the ice making room in the original Xinfu Market is still open for business after 80 years. With the rumbling motor sound, it supplies ice for preservation to nearby market stalls every day, and has become the only stall in the Xinfu Town cultural vegetable market.
