DESIGN NAME: Tao Hua Yuan Bookstore
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Bookstore
INSPIRATION: Inspired by "Tao Hua Yuan Ji" by Tao Yuanming, a Chinese literary masterpiece version of Utopia, the concept is to make the bookstore a getaway where people can slow down, feel relaxed, and peaceful in a busy city context. The story is about a fisherman of Wuling, who by chance discovers an idyllic world of peace and tranquility, whose inhabitants live an ideal and harmonious life with nature and are unaware of the outside world for centuries.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Bookstores have always been an important role in book discovery and book culture in general. For bookstores to remain successful, the key is to improve the experience of buying books. By visualizing the journey of the fisherman in “ Tao Hua Yuan Ji ”, this project becomes a physical representation of utopia for book lovers. It is a place where one not only can purchase books, but also can relax and fully enjoy the time of reading.
