The library is located in a resort community along the coast of China's Bohai Bay, about a three-hour drive from Beijing. With the rapid urban development, the deterioration of the quality of living environment in Beijing has become an increasingly serious problem. This resort community aims to provide residents with a high-quality living environment close to nature, providing a series of cultural and recreational facilities in the community, the seaside library is one of them.
The main idea of the design is to explore the coexistence between the boundaries of space, the movement of the body, the change of light atmosphere, the circulation of air and the view of the sea. The east side of the library faces the sea, and serves the residents of the community on the west side in spring, summer and fall, while being open to the public free of charge.
