Market Hall (Rotterdam)

The staple building of MVRDV, the Market Hall located in Rotterdam, Netherlands was realized in 2014.  The arch consists of apartments,  which covers the public square below.  This square is a central market by day, and home to various resturants at night.  It is a hybrid building where one can eat, shop,  park their car, and live. The ground and first floor include retail shops, cafes, and restaurants.  The aspect of the building that stands out the most is the mural “Cornucopia”. This mural envelopes the entire underside of the arch.
