Sissis Wonderland
Reading Space for Muxin Studio
It is essential for children to have a safe and high-quality environment as they embrace the world in its various perceptive aspects. The smoothly curving plan speaks all for itself, curved walls not only feel more comfortable, but also enhance the perceptibility of space in a child. Square corners, hard materials and even straight lines are avoided wherever possible for the sake of better protection.

Unique Properties
After careful researches on various existing cases, designers found that the traditional way of children space design, with its flamboyant decoration, superficial embellishment and excessive use of meaningless figures, has lost its attractiveness. Hence they choose to make the project different by concentrate on the shape of the space itself, it's an attempt to turn the space itself into a giant toy, in which children can freely explore, discover and create their own lively experience.

Production Technology
In order to elicit an amicable relationship between the space created and the surrounding plants, as well as to bring children closer to the nature, designers use wood as the main building material. The selection of white paint and the soft grey floor glue further guarantees the children a safe and interesting place to play, learn and interact. They grow green plants on the boundaries where different spaces meet, which helps sustaining the dynamic among person, space and nature.
Design Challenge
The main topic of the project is to give different configurations according to different realms in spaces. Since spaces with different functions communicate and fusion with each other, a multitude of spatial forms and hierarchies are created.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2018 in Shanghai and finished in November 2018 in Shanghai.
Operation Flow
According to many researches, children of three to seven years old are in their most sensitive period of growing from their subjective worlds to the objective world. A flowing space like this helps expanding their perceiving and communicating abilities and reveal the true and creative nature in a child.
Research
The varieties of spatial typology provide children with experiential guidance to explore boundaries between public and private spaces. During the process of moving through spaces with various qualities, the Introvert and extrovert tendencies of children are well reflected in their behaviors. In the experimental children reading space project, designers are aiming to create a cozy and amicable places for children to read and play, a place that inspires their imagination and creativity.
Inspiration
The configuration of spaces follows an idea inspired by the game of blowing bubbles: several spaces are arranged according to their scales and functions before recombined and attached like bubbles. Since spaces with different functions communicate and fusion with each other, a multitude of spatial forms and hierarchies are created, in which openness and independence, public and private, interior and exterior are overlapped and interconnected in a creative and pleasant way.
