Hefei 1953 Juxing Grain Post Shanghai Sanlian Bookstore / SU Architects

Barns and Rural Areas. Since ancient times, people's belief in food has been rooted in the blood memory of agrarian civilization. The granary and the countryside together form the design background of the Hefei 1953 JuXing Grain Post · Shanghai Sanlian Bookstore, completing the transformation of space from storing material food to storing spiritual sustenance. For architects, it is not only another challenge facing new and old propositions but also a reflection and contemplation on the "temporality" and "regionality" in rural construction. The project is located in Mingchuan Township, Feixi County, Hefei City, within the JuXing Grain Post Cultural and Tourism Resort. As the first building at the entrance of the resort, it is modest and unassuming, like the rice sleeping in the granary, quietly continuing the warm daily cultural memory.
