Inspired by Joan Miro’s magical painting, organic shapes and forms are seen as key spatial components in this kid’s bookstore bringing the imaginative world to life for a joyful experience in knowledge hunting. Kids and parents can gain a fantastic experience of this unique space that expands their imaginations.
Kids Winshare is a composite bookstore targeting kids aged up to 12. It combines 4 essential programs altogether involving shopping, teaching & learning, dining and socializing, in one space and its layout design is based on an abstract landscape drawn from a series of circles and curves that divides it into two main sections.
In the first section, visitors will encounter an open-plan ‘bookscape’ organized through a series of spiral bookshelves in white and yellow, shaped to display a flow of text & picture books for different ages together with cosy reading pods used to provide opportunities of self-discovery for parents & kids. These oval-shaped transparent reading pods also act as visual openings of the shop front.
