I like the concept, but why is the building shaped like a barn?
It's shaped like a barn? The markets were built about 110 years ago, so... I can't really say. I think the section view doesn't truly portray the nature of the space.Have a look at some photos...http://www.dkimages.com/discover/previews/987/50193318.JPGhttp://farm1.static.flickr.com/60/175759048_4b1bb5fabe.jpg?v=0http://lh4.ggpht.com/_5f2vwyummFo/R12ARTfN0JI/AAAAAAAAAZI/RrkRF4bw-3U/Perth-40.JPGhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fremantle_MarketsIt's a lot bigger than it looks.
Being a market though, the barn shape does work well because all you want is a big uninterrupted space.Also, the sartorialist sihouettes look even better in a small image, rather than up close in photoshop.
Agreed on both accounts - but when inside, it looks more like a warehouse/atrium than a barn.
