在尼日尔农村，市场每周运行一次，这意味着各个村庄从未真正发展起地方经济。丹达吉的人口增长使其试图通过委托建立一个永久性的每日市场来实现转机。由于目前的市场是围绕着一棵祖传的树组织的，而这棵树长期以来一直是市场日的一个重要的公共空间，新项目保持在同一地点，放大了人们已经开始依赖的经验。

In rural Niger, markets run on a weekly basis, meaning that individual villages never really develop a local economy. The demographic growth of Dandaji has led it to attempt a turn around by commissioning a permanent daily market. Because the current market is organized around an ancestral tree that has long been an important public space on Market Day, the new project stays on the same site, amplifying an experience the population has come to count on.

我们的目标是创造一个具有视觉冲击力的基础设施，为其用户灌输自豪感，并为该地区吸引更多的商业。最终，该项目的一个重要目标是创造一个空间，通过为这个公共基础设施提供一个巨大的升级，引发用户自己对未来更大的信心和期望。

The objective was to create an infrastructure that would be visually striking, instill pride in its users, and attract more commerce to the area. Ultimately, an important goal of the project is to create a space that triggers greater confidence and aspirations for the future in the users themselves by offering a dramatic upgrade for this public infrastructure.

该项目的设计非常简单，使用一个由一系列单独的遮阳结构产生的彩色金属天幕。它为下面的售货空间提供了太阳能和热能保护。其结果是一个异想天开的世界，与展示的五颜六色的商品相得益彰，同时保护顾客免受烈日之苦。

The design of the project is kept very simple, using a colorful metal canopy produced by a succession of individual shading structures. It provides solar and thermal protection to the vending spaces underneath. The result is a whimsical world that complements the colorful goods on display while protecting patrons from the scorching sun.

市场的布局是逐步向下延伸到老树，其周围的环境正式成为一个真正的公共空间，有座位和休息空间供所有人聚集在一起。沿着荫凉的小道行走，人们体验到压缩土砖摊位的简单，有助于空间的冷却，而遮阳结构的交替高度有助于整个空气的流动。

The market is laid out to progressively step down to the old tree, the surroundings of which are formalized to become a real public space with seating and rest spaces for all to gather around. Walking along the shaded lanes, one experiences the simplicity of the compressed-earth brick stalls that contribute to the cooling of the space, while the alternating heights of the shading structures help the airflow throughout.
