Market on Senovážné square

Alex Máslo

Annotation

The plot that was chosen for this market project is a relatively small Senovážné náměstí. Senovážné náměstí has had various names in history, the current one is based on its historical function as a hay market. This place, although located in a very prestigious place in the center of Prague near Wenceslas Square, is neglected and poorly used. So far, the square serves mainly as a parking lot, which is surrounded by apartment buildings and important buildings such as the Jindřišská Tower and the Sugar Mill Palace. However, the square does not serve as the square, it is impassable, crowded with cars, gloomy, without greenery and encouraging character. Now is the time for Senovážné náměstí to experience the markets again.
