Just one detail can radically transform an interior, and Chinese architects know about it. The Zhongshuge bookstore chain has been transformed by mirrored ceilings. Stairways and shelves are displayed in them, creating a sense of a different reality. Ordinary bookstores have turned into fabulous Escher-style enchanted labyrinths that you don't want to leave.

The Zhongshuge bookstore chain ordered the interior design of its branches from the Shanghai architecture firm X + Living and it was right: the result was amazing.
The amazing combination of illusion and reality amaze even the most sophisticated art and reading lovers.
Each branch of the Chinese book chain has a uniquely organized space with mirrored ceilings that display visitors, books on shelves, and stairs. It seems that all this is not happening in the store, but in the drawing by Maurits Escher.
In the branches located in Yangzhou, mirrors are placed not only on the ceilings, but also on the floor. These decorative elements create mirages - representations of city canals, rivers and lakes.
