The project suggests renovating the neglected market, which has become a nuisance in south Tel - Aviv. Contrary to the municipal plan that aims to erect a prestigious residential tower in its place, the project proposes a low-fabric multi-purpose structure, to act as an urban memory merging into its surroundings, socially and stylistically.

The architectural proposal takes under consideration open and closed, culture and commercial spaces. In addition, the project includes an intensive development of public passage in ground level which connects two parallel streets and creates a new urban attractive quality for young population.

The dwellings in the project are based on a social and ethical approach, allowing unique and different social connections between the neighbors.
