This space merges a museum and digital library, embodying serenity and Sinology. The entrance features a marble texture wall and tall windows that create a play of light and shadow. Three volumes surround a central courtyard, distinguishing paths for visitors and researchers. Sunlit areas connect various spaces, while block-like walls create immersive environments. A staircase leads to the second floor with an audiovisual space and lounge. Stacked stone structures at the core reflect the collection's depth and connect both floors, with an open courtyard view fostering contemplation.
