Located on Hainan Island in southern China, this project draws inspiration from the region鈥檚 rich cultural heritage and natural landscapes, translating the spirit of traditional academies into a contemporary spatial experience. The design takes 鈥淏ookish City Movement鈥 as its central theme, emphasizing values of cultural inheritance, family legacy, and quality living.

The overall layout follows the principles of clear functionality and smooth circulation, organically linking the front hall, brand display area, sand table area, negotiation area, water bar, and parent-child reading area. This creates an immersive atmosphere of 鈥渧ibrant outside, tranquil inside,鈥 balancing ceremonial formality with a sense of warmth.

The front hall adopts a symmetrical layout referencing the traditional axial order of academies. A green natural stone reception desk sets a stable tone, while the landscape-textured backdrop merges the imagery of books with local coastal elements, establishing an elegant and ceremonial entrance sequence.

The sand table area continues this axial symmetry. Artistic glass partitions inlaid with metal recall the screen doors of traditional academies, maintaining visual openness while subtly dividing the space. A green-textured sand table anchors the area, complemented by artistic pendant lighting and surrounding plants that create a 鈥渉idden forest鈥 atmosphere, blending cultural ritual with natural elegance.

The water bar area, named Wanjuan Hall, interprets the image of 鈥渢en thousand volumes of books and elegant gatherings.鈥 Its circular form echoes 鈥渞ipples of the sea,鈥 while the overhead installation resembles a 鈥渓ight waterfall falling on a book pavilion.鈥 A bookshelf-like backdrop reinforces the scholarly atmosphere, allowing visitors to experience both the coastal city鈥檚 rhythm and the quiet refinement of the academy.

The negotiation area adopts a symmetrical and elegant layout, integrating the traditional image of 鈥渜uiet reading and refined discussion鈥 with modern functions. Flanking bookshelves recall ancient script displays, reinforcing the cultural theme.

The parent-child reading area uses warm wooden bookshelves surrounding the space like 鈥渃ontainers of classics.鈥 A circular chandelier resembling a 鈥渟tar ring鈥 and a curved staircase create an interactive, enveloping reading environment, balancing the dignity of an academy with the warmth of family life.
