FARMERS’ MARKET

Abstract

People's demand for markets has shifted as people's behavior patterns have gradually changed. The market is a hub for social interaction and living as well as a place where goods are traded. Markets have been an essential component of urban life for thousands of years, serving as a hub for commercial and social activity in many cities around the world, markets continue to play a crucial role in providing access to fresh food and supporting local economies. Nowadays, market dominates the daily life of people. Farmers markets are becoming more prevalent. However, the design of farmers' markets is still unexplored in the context of Nepal. Even though an agricultural nation, Nepal imports a significant amount of agricultural goods every year. With the increasing population and demand for fresh food in Nepal, it is important to explore the architectural possibilities of farmers' markets to ensure that they can meet the needs of the community. This may involve creating designs that are adaptable, flexible, and sustainable, as well as incorporating accessibility features to ensure that all members of the community can access these spaces.
