The offline site of the “World Island” project was selected in an old street park that was crossed vertically by old banyan trees.Continuing the relaxed atmosphere of the original online and second-hand shops, people who visit the space can truly feel the sense of life conveyed by the world island. Therefore, in terms of space design, the "The Tree Room" medieval lifestyle exhibition hall was derived from the island, hoping to present a comfortable and relaxing green island atmosphere. The space retains the original terrazzo floor, the spiraling tree root system is hidden under the terrazzo ground, trying to surge upward, and over the years several slender and winding cracks have been produced on the ground, which are also the cracks left by the root system of the old banyan tree that has witnessed the replacement of different shops.

Feature planning

Around this banyan tree, the spatial structure of the world island is roughly divided into three parts：Home living room" with floor-to-ceiling glass and fireplace design, Concentrated display of ancient selected products, more open atmosphere of the exhibition hall, An office area backed by wooden display shelves.

The choice of materials is simplified, wood and stone elements are used as the basic carrier of nature, and only hard natural materials such as travertine and terracotta brick are used to match with delicate and gentle teak and lime washing, and finally achieve a delicate balance between light and heavy.

The floor-to-ceiling glass window on the whole surface selects the thin green between the meter and light gray background as the space wall, top surface, and the surface of the cabinet to wrap, while meeting the space storage function, so that the overall tonality of the display cabinet and the space is unified. The green is intertwined with dark and shallow brushstrokes, which visualize the branches and leaves of the banyan tree scattered around, which are being blown by the irregular wind. Sunlight shines through the gaps in the banyan trees and skylights into the space, presenting different scenes with the changing seasons.

In the design of medieval objects and spaces, it is difficult for the definition of the old and the new to follow the practice of linear time concepts in different fields, which leads to another view of time about the understanding of life: new and old, old and new, often only when forgotten, is the real disappearance in this world.
