A case study on floating markets based on definition, it's features, examples around the world and what all implementations have to be made if you are to make a floating market. The study is done as a part of an architectural design project and covers the basic idea of what such a space is about. This can be counted as a predesign literature analysis and a visual documentation. Feel free to reach out in case of queries!
