Unique Properties

Huai’an Zhongshuge’s concept is the “universe”. Using traditional wood, it creates a surreal planetary installation that links two floors.The designer achieved large-scale construction within limited space, overcoming the technical challenge through precise 3D modeling and computational simulation. Repeated adjustments and optimizations ensured the balance between structural stability and visual impact. The bookstore’s display, reading, and leisure functions are embedded into astronomical form.

Inspiration

The design of Huai’an Zhongshuge draws inspiration from the local urban culture, the theme of human exploration of the universe, and the symbolic significance of books. The vastness of the universe echo the infinite knowledge and ideas contained in books, while creating a new cultural landmark for the city. Technically, the design is inspired by the patterns of celestial forms and orbital movements. The designer simulated planetary trajectories, integrating functionality and aesthetics.
