About Sissis Wonderland 독서 공간

시시스 원더랜드(Sissis Wonderland)는 상하이에 위치한 108제곱미터 규모의 어린이 독서 공간이다. 공간 구성은 비눗방울을 부는 놀이에서 영감을 받아, 서로 다른 크기의 방들이 맞물리며 개방된 영역과 사적인 영역이 겹쳐지도록 계획되었다. 목재를 주재료로 사용하고 흰색 도장과 부드러운 회색 바닥 마감을 조합하였다. 높낮이가 다양한 계단, 좌석 역할을 겸하는 책장, 지그재그로 이어지는 경사로, 작은 아치가 모두 어린이의 신체 치수에 맞추어 조성되었다. 공간과 공간이 만나는 지점에는 녹색 식물이 자란다. 이 디자인은 공간 자체를 탐험하고 놀 수 있는 커다란 장난감으로 변모시킨다.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Unique Properties: After careful researches on various existing cases, designers found that the traditional way of children space design, with its flamboyant decoration, superficial embellishment and excessive use of meaningless figures, has lost its attractiveness. Hence they choose to make the project different by concentrate on the shape of the space itself, it's an attempt to turn the space itself into a giant toy, in which children can freely explore, discover and create their own lively experience.
Dimensions & Packaging: The project covers a total of 108 square meters. Thinking from the perspective of a child, designers planned and divided the space in children's scales. Though spatially limited by the floor area, they managed to squeeze in stairs with different heights, bookshelves that also serves as chairs, zigzagging ramps and mini arches in children's size. All of these are in children's scale. Boys and girls can climb up and down or play hide-and-seek in these facilities without parents worrying about potential dangers and injuries.

Production Technology: In order to elicit an amicable relationship between the space created and the surrounding plants, as well as to bring children closer to the nature, designers use wood as the main building material. The selection of white paint and the soft grey floor glue further guarantees the children a safe and interesting place to play, learn and interact. They grow green plants on the boundaries where different spaces meet, which helps sustaining the dynamic among person, space and nature.
Design Challenge: The main topic of the project is to give different configurations according to different realms in spaces. Since spaces with different functions communicate and fusion with each other, a multitude of spatial forms and hierarchies are created.
Research: The varieties of spatial typology provide children with experiential guidance to explore boundaries between public and private spaces. During the process of moving through spaces with various qualities, the Introvert and extrovert tendencies of children are well reflected in their behaviors. In the experimental children reading space project, designers are aiming to create a cozy and amicable places for children to read and play, a place that inspires their imagination and creativity.
Inspiration: The configuration of spaces follows an idea inspired by the game of blowing bubbles: several spaces are arranged according to their scales and functions before recombined and attached like bubbles. Since spaces with different functions communicate and fusion with each other, a multitude of spatial forms and hierarchies are created, in which openness and independence, public and private, interior and exterior are overlapped and interconnected in a creative and pleasant way.
Project Duration: The project started in September 2018 in Shanghai and finished in November 2018 in Shanghai.
Operation Flow: According to many researches, children of three to seven years old are in their most sensitive period of growing from their subjective worlds to the objective world. A flowing space like this helps expanding their perceiving and communicating abilities and reveal the true and creative nature in a child.
