The Design

About Read Life Kulturelt Rum

Read Life er et fælles kulturelt rum designet til offentlig læsning. Projektet dækker 815 kvadratmeter fordelt på to etager. Stueetagen rummer det primære læseområde, et bageri, et lille supermarked og en café. Udstillingsskabe fra gulv til loft nær indgangen bærer planter, som tilfører indendørs grønt og hjælper med at rense luften. Høje bogvægge definerer læseområdets karakter. Første sal omkranser det åbne centrale rum og indeholder et kunstgalleri og et legeområde for børn. Designet forbinder bøger og mennesker og understøtter udveksling af viden.

Production Technology: The 1st floor is the composite space encompassing the main reading area, the bread shop, the small supermarket, the café, etc. Alongside the building entrance, the floor-to-ceiling display cabinets adorned with plants on the vertical scale unite the organic, indoor greening, air purifying functions, etc. that correspond to the concept of interior design.
Design Challenge: The 2nd floor surrounding the tall indoor space has the art gallery and children’s play area, where the capacious environment is comfy for playing and reading activities. Staying in the tall and open space, people have the different experiences of reading and life. This is the space not only connects books and people, also enhance the communications of knowledge and life among people.
Inspiration: Life concerns more on the pursuit of spirit. We should be grateful and contribute to the society with the limited resources and conditions. This is the intent of design, making reading communal and making life universal.
Project Duration: The project finished in October 2018, locates in Henan, China.
Operation Flow: The towering cabinets disclose the magnificent momentum. The design of book walls fascinatingly resembles the movie scene in “Roman Holiday,” in which the actress Audrey Hepburn first met the actor. The space characters are distinct from the general impression to a reading area. The café, behind the reading area, is embellished with the sufficient daylight and the elegant colors and adornments consistently conformed to the main design skills. The stair lighting, from the 1st to 2nd floor, is gorgeous.
