As urban development and hygiene concerns prompt the transition of these markets from outdoor to indoor spaces, the distinctive elements, including these lamps, are at risk of disappearing. This innovative design seeks to uphold the warm, inviting glow of these traditional lamps, originally intended to enhance the presentation of fresh food and provide essential illumination in outdoor environments lacking street lighting. By capturing this warm ambiance, your lantern not only pays homage to the collective memory of traditional outdoor markets but also aims to create a cozy atmosphere for shared meals with friends and family, making it a blend of cultural preservation and practical functionality for outdoor enthusiasts.
