Abstract
The public market is a well-known typology that creates a sense of community and locality within the site and context. The typology is defined as uniqueness, depending on the culture and civilization in which they are found, and they reflect small or large-scale commodities manufacturing. This paper will focus on studying space syntax to extract the level of permeability and wayfinding of a market in Estonia named the Baltic Station Market. The Baltic Station Market is a call designed and enhanced from the old building since 1993. This building is located at the heart of the north of Kalamaja city, close to the locals as an attraction for tourists. This paper will use space syntax methodology, which will be further developed into justified graphs to understand the spatial configuration inside the market. The result shows a very high permeability and straightforward wayfinding from the case study to serve the public users dominantly. Hence, it is said that the case study has achieved desirable circulations without neglecting the usage of adaptive reuse of the existing building's structure and walls.
