About Taicang Readzone Interiørdesign for bokhandel

Taicang Readzone er en bokhandel som ligger inne i et varehus i Taicang, Kina. Bokhandelen dekker 368 kvadratmeter og er utformet som et sirkulært teater. Høye bokvegger og dørkarmer i flere retninger minner om konsentrerte urbane gatescener og inviterer leserne til å utforske. Sirkulære bevegelseslinjer knyttes sammen med radiale stier og danner atskilte bokgrupper og varierte sitteområder. Et tak i rustfritt stål reduserer den tunge følelsen av den store konstruksjonen. Fleksible hyller, bord og sitteplasser legger til rette for individuell lesing, lesing for foreldre og barn samt møter.
