About Bishan Libreria
Bishan è una libreria ricavata all'interno di un'antica sala ancestrale nel villaggio di Bishan, contea di Yi, nell'Anhui. La sala, un tempio della famiglia Wang, è stata costruita oltre 230 anni fa durante la dinastia Qing. Il progetto si estende su 420 metri quadrati e adatta un edificio storico tutelato a un uso culturale contemporaneo. Materiali naturali come legno, bambù e pietra definiscono gli interni, mentre la parete-libreria è rifinita in terra battuta bianca. Un pannello in cemento sostiene la parete-libreria e limita i danni causati dall'umidità di risalita. La forma della parete-libreria richiama i paraventi dipinti e inquadra un'area di lettura centrale.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties

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.

- 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.

- 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 screened bookcase recedes backward, drawing the viewer's eye toward the center of the picture.
