A9a architects creates community driven timber market in Zhengzhou

Concepts of community, memory and revitalisation mix in A9a architects' most recent public project. Welcome to Pulo Market, a hub of retail, leisure and creativity in the Chinese city of Zhengzhou, Henan province. Conceived as a commercial building with a soul centred on community, the project was designed to serve the local population through its openness and inviting nature, but also to celebrate timber as a building material, its frame making extensive use of solid spruce wood.

The spaces within are occupied by vegetable, fruit and seafood sellers, but also include a wealth of food and drinks options, providing a platform for anything from informal social gatherings, to business meetings. And besides its generous scale – at some 4,200 sq m – the project prioritised using recycled timber and modular building, to help promote an environmentally friendly approach.

'Children enjoy healthy food; young people feel the vibrancy; neighbours awaken past memories in chance encounters... At Pulo Market, art and creativity become the most special commodities,' write the architects. Founded just in 2015, A9a is an energetic studio of architects, designers and thinkers, headed by founder Jio Li. Based in Chengdu and Chongqing, the practice works on projects across the board, without restrictions in scale or typology.

This is reflected in the architects’ free-spirited ethos, they explain in their statement: 'At this point, it feels unnecessary to define our thinking [at] A9a. We feel no urge, nor motivation, to write a philosophy of the office.

Raccoon dogs at Wuhan market linked to COVID origins in new studySamples were collected in early 2020 from surfaces at the Huanan seafood market and the genetic sequences were recently uploaded by China to the world's largest public virus database. They were then taken down but not before a French biologist spotted the information by chance. If this thing started in Atlanta Georgia we’d all be looking at the CDC 🤷🏻‍♂️ Stop with the science. You’re confusing the MAGA’s with big words! As it not been proven that it was a lab leak? More than likely purposely leaked.
