About Bishan Китобхона

Бишан китобхонаест, ки дар дохили толори собиқи аҷдодӣ дар деҳаи Бишан, ноҳияи Йи, вилояти Анҳуй ҷойгир аст. Ин толор, ки зиёратгоҳи хонаводаи Ван мебошад, беш аз 230 сол пеш дар давраи сулолаи Син сохта шудааст. Лоиҳа 420 метри мураббаъро дар бар мегирад ва бинои таърихии таҳти ҳифзбударо ба истифодаи фарҳангии имрӯза мутобиқ месозад. Маводи табиӣ, аз қабили чӯб, бамбук ва санг, фазои дохилиро шакл медиҳанд, дар ҳоле ки девори рафҳои китоб бо хоки кӯфтаи сафед пардоз шудааст. Тахтаи сементӣ девори рафҳои китобро дастгирӣ мекунад ва зарари аз намии замин расандаро маҳдуд месозад. Шакли девори рафҳои китоб пардаҳои нақшинро ба хотир меорад ва минтақаи марказии мутолиаро иҳота мекунад.

Unique Properties: The Bishan Bookstore needs to have a clear business strategy and plan, which all need to be adapted to the changing consumption and needs of the times and to think with the times. If the market-oriented development of the space is hampered by over-protection, Bishan bookstore will become an exhibit for ornamental purposes only, and its value as a cultural container will be lost.
Dimensions & Packaging: This project covers an area of 420 square meters.
Tags: Huizhou culture, ancestral hall, traditional architecture, traditional crafts, bookstore
Production Technology: In addition to the patio, which faces nature, the interior also speaks the language of nature. Natural materials such as wood, bamboo, and stone are used to structure the interior itself. These materials not only have a natural beauty but also resonate with the environment. However, the bookcase wall uses a new material, white rammed earth material, which is used for the exterior wall material of the building.
Design Challenge: When Librairie Avant Garde listed the realistic problems to us one by one, we felt that the difficulty of this project was not just to solve these operational challenges,but how a heritage-protected building could find a balance between history and modernity, preserving the original characteristics of this family shrine while enabling it to adapt to the needs of modern society.
Research: In this small village, there is a Wang family shrine Qitai Hall, built in the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, more than 230 years ago. And this small ancestral hall, which has experienced countless hours of history, was injected with new blood in 2014 Librairie Avant Garde the eighth branch of Nanjing Librairie Avant Garde and the first bookstore in the countryside.
Inspiration: There is a Wang family shrine Qitai Hall, built in the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, more than 230 years ago. Librairie Avant Garde has been committed to rooting into the countryside, not for commercial needs, but for the dissemination of culture, so that those areas where it is most difficult to be able to read books have a cultural utopia gathered for the love of reading and books.
Project Duration: Project Address: Bishan Village, Yi County,Anhui
Completion date: December 2024
Operation Flow: First of all, the transformation of the bookcase is the core of the whole design, in order to reduce the damage to the bookcase caused by the humidity on the ground, the cement board is used to build the bookcase wall, and the bookcase is partially embedded. The form of the whole bookcase wall is inspired by the screen in Chinese painting, and the center area wrapped by three screens is the area for the daily activities of the literati. The screened bookcase recedes backward, drawing the viewer's eye toward the center of the picture.
