Beijing bookshop

I was working on the design of a bookshop that I wanted to be unique. I went to the library and looked for general examples of buildings in some architecture magazines in order to get some inspiration for my design. I then found a magazine in the library with a photograph in it of a traditional-style Beijing house, with a courtyard in the middle. I was surprised to find this photo as I had already looked for many photos for inspiration but with no luck. The photo in the magazine gave me the idea to design the book shop in a similar style, as both spaces could function as an oasis from the crowds outside and provide a quiet place to think.
