西面青山，青龍塢村有一座木結構泥墻的老房子。添置上竹制書架和臥室，在兩層空間中設置社區圖書館，這座高7.2 米，232 平方米的建筑搖身一變為可容納20 人的膠囊旅館。

如何在如此緊湊的空間內同時保證住宿區的私密性和公共區域是開放連續的？是建筑師在將一棟老房子改造成集膠囊旅館和圖書館于一體的混合空間時面臨的最大挑戰。

拆原樓，斷隔墻，開辟底層為圖書館和公共空間，其上采用兩個獨立的“懸浮”結構服務男女客人，并各配10 個統一的膠囊室和一個浴室。與其設定固定的樓層高度，建筑師將浮體每1.35 米間隔開，只夠讓人坐著或躺著。劈開樓板交錯排列，形成視角有趣的非常規三層空間。在住宿區創造幾個“雙高”空間，酒店客人在站立穿行間能望到樓層高度以上的地方。劈開層疊的樓層由細細的金屬樓梯連接，9 級臺階就能上到另一層，形成了一條山間小路般急轉的曲折路線，人們在膠囊里蜿蜒、上升、駐足、閱讀、窺探和休息。

“樓內樓”的理念模糊了各種空間的界限，使底層開放的公共空間和私密的“懸浮”住宿區達到平衡。然而，從門廳向兩座“建筑”的正面看，錯落有致的樓板間有著清晰的截面，上方的膠囊隔間與當地竹子制成的書架交相掩映。

內部空間重組延伸，反映成為外部改造。膠囊房垂直外墻上開的小口保存了建筑原有的簡樸。建筑師在東端切割了整面山墻，露現出令人驚嘆的自然景觀，并嵌入木質框架和波紋聚碳酸酯面板的透明結構，引“綠”入室。天花板上的開口照進充足的自然光亮。

The site is an old house of wood structure and mud walls in the villageQinglongwu,facing the green mountains east side.The architect regeneratedthis 232sqm building by inserting bedrooms and bamboo bookshelves and transformed it to a capsule hotel that can accommodate 20 people,along with a community library into the 7.2-meter high two-stories space.

To convert an old house to a mix-use space with capsule hotel and library,the biggest challenge to the architects,is to ensure the privacy of the accommodation area while giving openness and continuity to the public areas within such a compact space.

After removing the original floors and partition walls,the architect opened the ground floor for library and public spaces,placed two independent“floating”structure above,which will be used separately for male and female guestsequipped with 10uniformed capsule rooms and one bathroom for each.Instead of a regular floor height,the architect divided the floating mass by 1.35 meters,a height that can only allow people to sit or to lie low,then split and staggered the floor slabs to create an unconventional three-floor space with interesting perspectives,and formed a few“double-height”spaces in the accommodation areas,so the hotel guests can still find a place to stand and to walk through,it is also where people’s point of sight is above the floor height.The split and stacked floors are connected by thin metal staircases,with only 9 steps to reach another level,formed a zigzagging route with quick turns,similar to the paths in the mountains where moments of people’s meandering,ascending,stopping,reading,snooping and resting in the capsules are revealed from time to time.

The idea of "buildings inside the building" blurs the boundaries of various spaces and formed a balance between the privacy of the“floating”accommodation area and the openness of the public space on the ground floor.However,when you are looking at the front of the two“buildings”from the entrance hall,you will find a clear cross-section relationship between the staggering floor slabs,while the capsules on the other sides of masses are aligned with the repeated modular compartments of the bookshelf constructed from local bamboo.

The exterior renovation is an extension as well as a reflection on the reorganization of the interior spaces.Based on the vertical programming of the capsule rooms,the restrained openings on the exterior wall to maintain the original simplicity of the building.Given the amazing natural landscape at the east end of the building,the architect cut the whole gable wall on this side and embedded a transparent structure of wooden frames and corrugated polycarbonate panels,introducing the green of the mountains and forests into the interior.The openings in the ceiling also brings rich natural lights into the interior spaces.
