To revitalize the cultural heritage of the traditional countryside, enhance the cultural awareness of residents regarding environmental protection, boost rural tourism, and encourage urban residents to reconnect with the countryside while contributing to rural development, the Yiyang City government has constructed this project in the suburban Qingxi Village.
The project encompasses functions such as the exhibition and preservation of rare signed edition books, sales, research facilities, academic conferences, experiential spaces, and leisure activities. It can house and preserve up to 500,000 signed edition books.
The architectural design integrates continuous inner courtyards and a continuous "folded plate" sloping roof into a cohesive whole. This design not only harmonizes with the undulating mountainous terrain of the surrounding area but also creates a diverse internal space characterized by distinct functionalities, orderly openings, and smooth transitions. Employing spatial design techniques like enclosure, rotation, folding, borrowing, transparency, and screening, the design creates a sequence of contextually engaging spaces.
The building employs eco-friendly materials such as recycled bricks, wood, bamboo, and steel. The design draws inspiration from traditional brick and wood structures found in Qingxi Village and combines these materials with modern construction techniques. This synthesis results in a building that exudes a rustic yet elegant charm and embodies both regional aesthetics and contemporary cultural values, defining it as a novel form of rural public architecture.
