Mercado de Abastos
System of structures for the adaptation of the access points of the Mercado de Abastos of Logroño
A system of temporary structures that adapt the main entrances to the Food Market. Through the use of wooden frames and crossbeams, a covering is formed that accommodates the existing uses and creates a new image for the entrance: a vegetal façade that will house exhibition documentation and plants of different species on glass stands. A new look for the Market.
