The latest edition of our Dezeen Debate newsletter features an upgraded trading stall for Nigeria’s street markets. Subscribe to Dezeen Debate now.
Nigerian designer Paul Yakubu created a trading stall by combining an umbrella with a modular display crate system, aimed at maximising space in crowded street markets.
Readers mostly praised the innovation, with one calling it “lovely and very transportable”. Another, however, criticised the design, saying “though decorative, this solution is not a practical one”.
Other stories in this week’s newsletter that sparked debate included an in-depth look at Norman Foster’s legacy ahead of his 90th birthday, Heatherwick Studio’s new office in King’s Cross and the recently completed V&A East Storehouse in London.
