Experience the energy of vibrant and bustling marketplaces from around the world, illustrated by Jingyao Guo.

Backers will help fund a series of large-format illustrations of different marketplaces from around the world.

We love open air marketplaces because they mix economic and social transactions between people with a variety of purposes: business, leisure, tourism, and daily shopping. At the heart of every market is the energy of entrepreneurship. Vendors use makeshift tools and ingenious techniques to move their goods efficiently, while customers haggle with expert price negotiators to determine true market price. Many of these markets have been in operation for decades and directly reflect the cultural spirit of their locale.

As designers, we are interested in the way that all the minute details of an environment add up to create a rich and lively atmosphere. We wanted to produce a series of drawings that would represent this, and invite others in as observers.

Each drawing takes Jingyao about a month to produce, from initial research to the painstaking creation of the final illustration. Because of the time involved, we are releasing the posters in stages, grouped geographically. The first three, just in time for the holidays, are Raohe Night Market in Taipei, Taiwan; Muara Kuin Floating Market in Indonesia; and the Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo, Japan. As a backer, you’ll also be able to vote on what you’d like us to make next.

This project is a collaboration between illustrator Jingyao Guo and small batch design brand ODLCO. The posters are nearing completion and will go to print shortly after the
Kickstarter pledging period ends.

台湾台北饶河夜市
Raohe Night Market, Taipei, Taiwan

饶河夜市是台湾台北最著名的夜市，位于一条古街上。来这里的人们都是很放松的，不管是西装革履的公务员还是悠闲的一家老小。这里出售中国传统小吃（比如：臭豆腐）以及一些创意台湾特色小吃。中国人的热闹总是熙熙攘攘，其乐融融。

Taiwanese Night Markets are renowned for the variety and creativity of their street snacks, or “xiao chi.” They open in the early evening and close around midnight. Raohe Market is one of the oldest street markets in Taipei, Taiwan. You’ll find many families and groups of friends relaxing at the market, but it’s also not uncommon to see businessmen in suits sitting on a plastic stool, grabbing a quick meal on their way home from the office. Market stalls sell traditional dishes like Stinky Tofu, and newer inventions like Big Dog Wrap Little Dog (a sticky rice sausage wrapped around a chinese pork sausage and topped with a bunch of chinese pickles). The Night Markets embody the Chinese idea of “renao,” which directly translates to “hot noisy,” but more or less means prosperous, populous, and fun.

印尼Muara Kuin水上市场，
Muara Kuin Floating Market, Indonesia

印尼南加里曼丹省马辰有个远近闻名的水上市场，戴着竹斗笠的妇女们划着艇，载着自产的农作物到这里来买卖，一般都是以货换货，当地人相互做交易。这里还有餐船，如果你要买餐船上的食物，船主会用钩棒将食物挑给你哦~

The Muara Kuin Floating Market is located in the city of Banjarmasin (River City), in the Indonesian province of South Kalimantan. The market functions primarily as a wholesale
agricultural market. The boats, known as “jukung”, are manned by women wearing shaded bamboo hats. Sellers group together by type of product, and sell their goods to locals, commonly through barter, who then resell goods in villages down smaller riverways. In one area of the market, cafe boats congregate to sell breakfast to passing boats. The owner of the cafe boat ties patrons’ boats to his own and passes dishes using a hooked stick. After settling the check, he unties their boat and sends them on their way.

日本东京筑地鱼市场
Tsukiji Fish Market, Tokyo, Japan

日本东京筑地鱼市场是世界上最大的鱼市场，这里有最专业的金枪鱼和箭鱼鱼贩。出售从海洋上打捞上来的近400种海鲜。筑地鱼市场在现在的位置已经快70年了，2014年它将被搬移到一个新的现代化市场中去。值得注意的是，筑地鱼市场开门时间是在凌晨三点，关门时间是下午一点。

Tsukiji Market is the largest fish market in the world, most famous for the wholesale tuna auction that happens in a restricted back area. Frozen tuna and swordfish are cut with large bandsaws by expert fishmongers. The wholesale area is the most popular destination where stalls sell more than 400 kinds of seafood, from everyday staples like seaweed to exotic pufferfish. The market, which has been in this location since 1935, will be moved to a new modern facility in 2014. It opens at 3am every morning and closes at 1pm to be hosed down and cleaned.
