Mercato dei Fiori Vecchio, Flower market in Pescia, Italy.
The building features a catenary vault design with warehouses and offices spread across multiple levels connected by walkways and staircases.
Leonardo Savioli and the Quadrifoglio group designed this architectural complex, which opened in 1951 to serve the growing flower trade in Tuscany.
The market structure represents a shift in local economics from silk manufacturing to specialized agriculture, particularly flower cultivation in the Pescia region.
Located between Via Amendola, Via Turati, Via VIII Settembre, and Via Rosselli, the market contains municipal offices and a restaurant in its premises.
The building's architectural design combines modern forms with technical solutions, featuring a floating vault that creates an open, light-filled interior space.
