The Mercado Tirsa de Molina, located in Santiago de Chile and designed by Iglesis Prat
Arquitectos replaced an old aggregation of market stalls. Intended as a
new face of the Vega market district, the building is impressively iconic on an
apparent shoestring budget. Inverted pyramidal forms made of perforated
(CNC-milled) plywood create a diaphanous roof canopy, spanning between simple
vertical columns, which march rhythmically through the open interior.
