About The Smell of Book Sales Office
The Smell of Book is a sales office interior located in Chengdu, China. The design uses the form and lines of the traditional Chinese book scroll as an art installation. The scroll shape also acts as the main circulation line, guiding visitors from the sales office on the second floor down to the model room on the first floor. Materials include mirror stainless steel, metal, acrylic, white stone, curved mirror and terrazzo. Large French windows reduce visual barriers and link the interior with the outdoor scenery.

- The sales office is on the second floor, while the model room is on the first room. The difficulty of the project lies in how to naturally lead customers from the second floor to the first floor to visit the model room. The design team has come up with many ways, and finally decided to use the idea of book scroll. Taking the book scroll as the space moving line, and a scenic spot, so that customers can follow the direction of the book scroll and naturally go downstairs
- Research
- Before the start of the project, a lot of surveys about Chinese scrolls were done, including the appearance of the scrolls and the choice of scroll text, and the display form of the scrolls has also been studied , so that this element can penetrate the entire space. Finally the desired effect has been achieved.
- Inspiration
- This project is inspired by the 5000-year Chinese history .The ups and downs of the book scroll are just like the waves of the long river of history. It is magnificent and solemn, and shows an artistic conception.
- Project Duration
- The project started in May 2020 in Chengdu China and finished in September 2020.
- Operation Flow
- Usually when people walk in the space, their vision tends to focus on the limited place, because there are too many visual obstacles in the space. In this project, the French windows are widely used for getting rid of too many indoor obstructions, and the style of interior design echoes with the outdoor scenery, so that people's vision in the space is very wide, there is no dead corner. People will have a more immersive and harmonious experience in the space.
