Nan Hsing est bibliotheca scholastica intra veterem scholae elementariae classem in Taivania constructa. Spatium circiter mille quadringentos nonaginta quattuor pedes quadratos complectitur. Trabes columnaeque duobus coloribus tractantur et cum lumine indirecto coniunguntur, ut species eorum gravis minuatur. Area lectionis in modum abaci elata secundum fenestras exstruitur, quae prospectum viriditatis externae praebet. Materiae includunt tegulas pavimenti tritui resistentes, laminas compactas, tabulas plasticas aluminii, speculum nigrum et cancellos aluminii ad mensuram factos. Colores niger, albus, canus atque lignei tenores locum tranquillum pueris ad legendum efficiunt.

Unique Properties
Most old style schools in Taiwan are structural with many beams and columns, the previous design also had a cement convex structure under the window sill, and the door was added to use as storage. The part of the beams and columns uses a two-color shape to weaken its heavy volume, and indirect light sources are added to form a power of the array. After the window sill area was removed, a window with a relatively high platform level was left. The bar reading area was built at the original height by the window. It can provide different seating and reading fashion. If you are tired, you can look at the greenery outside the window.

Design Challenge
it is difficult to do too many styling designs due to the budget is limited, try to reduce too many design techniques, so use tonal materials, lighting and change the way of reading as the design fashion for this time.
Research
In order for the children to concentrate on reading, whether it is lighting layout or material selection, it is designed after a holist approach. The color of the space is black, white, gray and wood grain color, so that the space has a calm feeling. It allows sunlight to enter and pass through a large number of windows, and the position of the lamps is changed to improve the lighting of the indoor space as well.
Inspiration
The library is a space where people can relax and study, the initial inspiration was to create a space for children to use their favorite position without restraint.Children can stand up, sit down or even lie down to read in their favorite position.
Project Duration
The project started in Changhua, Taiwan in February 2018 and was completed in Changhua, Taiwan in May 2019
Operation Flow
The reading environment should be quiet and calm, so the children's space does not have too many colors and too many cartoon patterns. This design is to allow children to read and learn in a relaxing and comfortable space. Therefore, such a space can really allow children to concentrate on reading and learning
