Whether late at night or early in the morning, many people choose to visit the 24-hour Eslite Dunhua branch to read and pass the sleepless hours. But this Eslite Dunhua branch, which has been around for 30 years, announced this year that its lease will expire in 2020, after which it will relocate elsewhere. Eslite Dunhua has also planned a five-part series of events called “Treasures of Dunhua,” inviting everyone to cherish the wonderful memories of these 30 years together. The first part of the series invited a renowned French architect to create a vibrant and dreamy art installation for Eslite Dunhua, immersing the space in a riot of color!

The first event in Eslite Dunhua’s “Treasures of Dunhua” series: “Emmanuelle: 100 Colors Spectrum Journey.”

On July 12, the special exhibition “100 Colors Spectrum Journey” by French architect Emmanuelle Moureaux, who lives in Japan, kicked off the first part of the “Treasures of Dunhua” series. On the iconic staircase leading to the second-floor bookstore, 8,000 hand-dyed, hand-cut paper pieces in 100 different colors were used. The designs on the paper pieces represent the years from Eslite Dunhua’s opening in 1989 to its closure in 2020, showcasing the vibrant spectrum of the past 30 years. Emmanuelle Moureaux also revealed that hidden among the colorful number paper pieces is a paper character “品” (meaning “quality”), and she welcomes everyone to come and find it.

“100 Colors Spectrum Journey” is located above the staircase leading to the second-floor bookstore.

The creator of “100 Colors Spectrum Journey,” Emmanuelle Moureaux, is a French architect based in Japan, and vibrant colors are a hallmark of her work.

“100 Colors Spectrum Journey” looks unique from every angle.

In addition to this dreamy colorful spectrum of paper, over 30 brands in the store have also incorporated the spectrum concept into their displays. Eslite Bookstore has also launched the “Color World Themed Book Exhibition,” breaking away from traditional book classification logic and arranging books on shelves in a gradient of red, yellow, green, blue, purple, and gold—an exceptionally special display.
