Yangzhou Slow: Treasure Box in the Ancient City
Chinese box
Wutopia Lab was invited by the owner
to change a Xinhua Bookstore and its auxiliary rooms
into a bookstore and a bookstore with hidden
in the ancient city of Yangzhou. Exhibitions, conferences, The treasure box in the teahouse
shows the people of Yangzhou the possibility of inheriting the history and showing the future
Yangzhou, which has a history of more than 2,5 years, was once the most prosperous city in China
The Xinhua Bookstore on Guoqing Road, which was established on January 28th, 1949
It was the first Xinhua Bookstore in Yangzhou
Its predecessor was the "Jianguo Bookstore" in the former Republic of China
after liberation, Xinhua Bookstore on Guoqing Road, which has been taken over
after 7 years of development
bearing the memories of several generations, has gradually fallen into disrepair with the development of the times
The business area is getting smaller and smaller
Some facades are leased to clothing stores
The bookstore that used to be the spiritual home of Yangzhou people has begun to be forgotten
The Yangzhou municipal government and owners hope to jointly revive Xinhua Bookstore and drive the ancient city
. Urban renewal in the district
Yangzhou Slow is a
nested surprise box
The Xinhua Bookstore obtained by Wutopia Lab is a small community consisting of a street building
and six buildings embedded in the texture of the old city
There is a yard full of sundries between the houses
Wutopia Lab regards the ancient city of Yangzhou as the above sentence.
Yangzhou Slow is the next sentence
Wutopia Lab integrates them into a related group
It is named "Yangzhou Slow"
This Yangzhou Slow is composed of four treasure boxes
The first box is Xinhua Bookstore
1.1 Miyako Bookstore is the lightest white box
The main tone of National Day Road is gray. Heavy
I think since I can't change the facade
, let's create a white and light bookstore.
I am inspired by the design of "Yi Gong".
I use a white acrylic bookshelf as a screen.
I enclose the bookstore and divide it into a maze of bookstores.
Translucent acrylic creates a foggy experience.
All the books seem to be suspended in the air
on a white floor. It's a light bookstore
Although the bookstore is small
, it seems endless under the mirror mapping
People can't stop
They can't linger
Time is not important
Qing Yi Lu Gong Shi, "Gong Gong, written by Meng Shu's great-grandfather in his later years, draws 7 screens and closes a hundred buttons.
1.2 The children's library is a jewelry box in a white box
The children's library on the second floor is an upgraded version of the Yi Palace Bookstore
The layout continues the Yi Palace Bookstore
But the bookshelf is changed into wood
The bookshelf is also the outline of the wooden house
The floor is bright yellow
There are animals (bookshelves) swimming on it
Layers of wooden houses have created a warm Narnia-like world for children under the reflection of mirror walls. Children are adults' treasures. 1.3 The mobile study is a mechanism in a white box. I insist on designing the lifting platform for transporting books into a mobile living room. The car wall can be used as an exhibition. Only those who are familiar with it know that
it is hidden behind the mirror wall
when it is opened occasionally
, readers can get a glimpse of
The Historical Changes of Xinhua Bookstore
Miscellaneous Notes of Daye, which is on display. "The mountains in the garden are the sea ... The wind pavilion and the moon view are all made by machine, or they rise or die, and if there is a change."
1.4 Guanwen Bookstore is a black box on a white box.
The third floor of the bookstore is a small collection area.
I was inspired by the "Guanwen Temple".
The movable stainless steel bookcase combined with the fixed bookshelf
The mirror ceiling and the black floor form a "secret room" that makes people feel lost.
It is the Guanwen Bookstore in Yangzhou. The first two compartments are bookshops, each with twelve rooms. In front of the hall, it is a road. "
1.5 Yunshang Garden is a box hiding nature.
The reading room comes out as a roof garden.
I am inspired by the bamboo in Geyuan and the Qingyi Pavilion in Geyuan.
The pattern of ripples formed by weather-resistant steel plates is used as the shape of the flower pond.
Bamboo is planted in it.
The graceful projection of green bamboo on the white sandstone is the echo of Geyuan on the roof of the old city.
This is a rewritten miniature nature
The Story of Geyuan. "The pool hall in the park is quiet, Shui Mu is graceful, and bamboo is planted with thousands of poles, so it is called a garden."
My smaller idea
is to embed a triangular blue acrylic on the outer wall between the stairs
It is engraved with the portrait of Wenqu Xingjun
Knowledge ultimately helps readers become literary talents and wisdom
"The treasure of bookstore box is knowledge and history"
The second box is a 24-hour "study" box.
2.1 Living in Poetry
Two small buildings in the backyard of Xinhua Bookstore were converted into homestays and * * * Enjoy the lobby
There are 12 rooms in the small building on two floors
This is the B&B box
I sacrificed part of the room area
I separated the rooms into small boxes attached to a big box
I regarded them as chocolates
You may get Li Bai
or Ouyang Xiu
At first, you can't be sure. Who
After all, there are 12 poets waiting for you to choose
You have a second way to choose
Drifting aimlessly along the corridor flowing like a river
You will pass by Zhang Ruoxu
and see all the Yangzhou poems you have read
Maybe you can't remember them clearly
but they will all shine in your mind again. Yangzhou in that text comes alive
2.2 bathed in the rainbow of inspiration
The small building adjacent to the B&B
is used for conference training activities. Enjoy the hall
its fa? ade is asked not to be treated on the fa? ade because it is very close to the residential buildings
I turned my eyes to the roof
There should be light
Colored skylights filter the sky into colorful
and make the room lively
Even in the fetters
Imagination can still gallop
This colored light is ordinary life.
"The treasure of the B&B box is a poetic life"
The third box is the central courtyard
The miscellaneous courtyard between the bookstore box and the B&B box has been cleaned up
This is the center of the whole Yangzhou Slow Project
The central courtyard is an empty box
I
planted a shiny "empty box" in the original dilapidated courtyard
It.
you stand in this empty, clean, In the gray box,
it is the next sentence of the chaotic and crowded ancient city.
It responds to the flaky mountain house.
The whole wall and ground are paved with gray stone.
This is an independent courtyard.
Its walls are separated from the surrounding buildings.
This is a gesture of determination to start over.
Through the landscape windows, flower brick walls, Yuedongmen
You can get a glimpse of the old city with different colors and textures
They try to squeeze in
but they are blocked out
In this quiet courtyard
You will slow down
Many thoughts and memories will come to mind
You can adjust
Think about something
This empty box is the center of the whole project
. It's the sky
The red maple in the center echoes the sky
It's a pity that I can't wait for it to turn red to publish my work
It's sometimes extravagant to be slow
"The treasure of the courtyard box is thinking"
The fourth box is a secret treasure
4.1 The winding water is the line to find the secret treasure. Suo
At the entrance of the backyard, you will find
curved copper bars embedded in the ground
"meandering water flowing"
. This is a clue to help us discover fine things
4.2 We have hidden three secret treasures
Along the meandering water
We found three secret places in this treasure box in the backyard
.
It has become two exquisite tea rooms
Qionghua Peony and Green Yang Chun
and the last independent homestay
Fireworks in March
This long and narrow winding yard
has achieved a calm independent of the noise
It belongs to the delicacy and complacency of the friends who found the treasure
"The treasure in the secret treasure box is memory.
Yangzhou Slow is the treasure of Yangzhou
Yangzhou slowly opens the box to Yangzhou people layer by layer
You stand in Yangzhou Slow Xinhua Bookstore
Have a rest
You will find that the alley on the west side of Daqinlin Pavilion
Xinsheng Street is the favorite green poplar hotel of celebrities in the Republic of China
And the alley not far away is Fuchun Tea House
Heyuan and. Dongguan Street is not far from the bookstore.
This treasure box of Yangzhou Slow will tell you that the ancient city of Yangzhou is the biggest treasure box.
It is waiting for us to explore
