About Lafonce Maxone Complesso culturale e commerciale
Lafonce Maxone è un complesso culturale e commerciale situato a Xi'an, in Cina. Gli interni riuniscono un centro commerciale, una libreria e altre tipologie di attività sotto un unico tema, quello del libro. Due pareti artistiche di libri, alte 18 metri e lunghe complessivamente 240 metri, ospitano centinaia di migliaia di volumi e sono realizzate con strutture in acciaio e vetro trasparente. Il vetro consente alla luce di diffondersi nello spazio vuoto dell'edificio. La struttura originaria era rimasta inutilizzata per tre anni e il suo volume aperto è stato conservato per creare un forte senso dello spazio.

- 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.
