Nizwa Suq Improvement
Nizwa, Oman
In an ancient capital and thriving contemporary center, new souks were constructed adjacent to existing ones. The new souq has been constructed on the site of the existing open-air produce market, adjacent to the old silver and grain souq. The design, scale, form, and colours of the new Souq are inspired by the traditional Arab souq, and influenced by the region's building traditions and materials.
