Yulin, with its mountains and water, has been a Mongolian-Chinese border fortress since ancient times, and is a tourist circle of Mongolian steppe nomadic culture, with a long history and a rich and prosperous market trade in peaceful times; We hope to create a set of urban furniture that “recalls” the lively nomadic market in the city-style section and responds to the complex layers of market culture in a rich but flexible way. We wanted to respond to the complex layers of marketplace culture.
The design strategy is to use the scale of 1m*1m as the basic modular unit of urban furniture, and to put together and combine them into a functionally rich urban furniture, which includes food and medicine stall stalls (1. open stalls, 2. packaged local products, 3. Chinese medicine lattice exhibition) and logistics area (1. resting platform seats, 2. bicycle parking, 3. tool storage, 4. children’s play), so as to create a lively atmosphere of the market street. The city style section of the street texture as a skeleton, combined with the modular furniture space scale, in the whole street to form three nodes to enhance the hierarchy of space scale, to provide a richer market experience; can be at the Lingyun Pavilion to climb the heights, overlooking the entire ancient street; can participate in the bazaar activities in the tour of the cloud scaffolding, through the ancient and modern intertwined space; stop to Quyundai, sit quietly for a moment, at the foot of the ancient building to watch a show, feel the vicissitudes of the ancient and modern…
We hope that the design of this set of urban furniture will allow pedestrians to “access” the nearest spatial interest point along the street at any time and enjoy the continuous close contact and interaction between the body and the public life of the city.
