About Lafonce Maxone Complexo Cultural e Comercial
Lafonce Maxone é un complexo cultural e comercial situado en Xi'an, China. O interior reúne un centro comercial, unha librería e outros tipos de negocio baixo unha única temática do libro. Dúas paredes artísticas de libros, de 18 metros de alto e 240 metros de longo en total, albergan centos de miles de libros e están construídas con estruturas de aceiro e vidro transparente. O vidro permite que a luz se espalle polo espazo baleiro do edificio. A estrutura orixinal permanecera sen uso durante tres anos, e o seu volume aberto conservouse para crear unha forte sensación de espazo.

- Production Technology
- 1. The original building was a roughcast architecture had been idle for 3 years. The designers kept the advantage of the original void area, with a view to producing a strong experiential sense of space.
2. With hundreds of thousands of books placed in, the two large walls are constructed with steel structures and transparent glass, which enables people to see through and also allows the light randomly diffuse to the void area to interact with the spatial entities in various forms. - Design Challenge
- The project's location doesn't enjoy large human flow volume and prosperous commerce. How to make LAFONCE MAXONE outshine other big shopping malls in Xi'an is a tough problem that needs to be solved.
- Research
- LAFONCE MAXONE is a trendy cultural and commercial complex, integrating shopping mall, bookstore and other functions. It can not only attract the human flow, but also promote local economic development and improve business operations of shopping centers.
- Inspiration
- The project is situated at an industrial area in the northern suburbs of Xi'an, which doesn't enjoy large human flow volume and prosperous commerce. According to the chief designer, it's imperative to depend on culture to go beyond geographical restrictions and gather people, because culture itself does not have geographical distance and can attract the participation of all people, thus maximizing the flow of customers. Based on such idea, the theme of "book" runs through the entire space.
