Latin experience market
Location: Seven Sister, London
Year: 2023
In this project, I aim to assist the Latin community in revitalizing the market and showcasing their vibrant culture and lifestyles to attract more visitors. The design of the market space will foster a relaxed atmosphere that not only presents the rich heritage of the community but also creates a welcoming environment for residents, helping them feel at home and alleviating their daily stress.
