The city has grown extremely rapidly and still growing rapidly, designers and the city have turned their back on what spaces work for people. The purpose of the project is to explore the space of local character. Which kind of space is more welcome in practical use.

Many architects emphasize their own ideas and personalities, resulting in buildings that do not serve the public well. Too much emphasis on form leads to the loss of the actual functionality of the building. This project selected a shopping centre with the above-mentioned problems and rebuilt it according to the lifestyle and habits of the local people. The contrast between the old and the new elements can be seen in the building. Spaces that are more in line with local people's lives have been added to the site. The function and form of the site and the building were re-planned and re-designed. The living habits of local residents have been considered more.
