Market of Many Shops
Context Web of Shopping19 · Shopping Street32
Problem
A single large supermarket under one roof may look efficient, but it smothers the variety of small, independent vendors and turns shopping into something uniform and impersonal.
Solution
Build a market out of many small, independent stalls instead of one large store, preserving the variety, character, and vitality that no single institution could ever offer on its own.
