教堂書店

Location: center of Maastricht, Holland
位于荷蘭馬斯特里赫特市中心

Despite the fact that the cathedral hadn’t been a working cathedral for more than 200 years, turning the space into a bookstore was an enormous challenge for Selexyz?Dominicanen’s architects. A city ordinance required that the cathedral be completely preserved, meaning that no permanent modifications to the building of any sort were?allowed!
這座大教堂已經(jīng)200年沒用了，如何將其空間轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)闀陮τ诮烫脮甑慕ㄖ焸儊碚f是個巨大的挑戰(zhàn)。城市條例規(guī)定此教堂必須被完整保護(hù)好，也就是說任何永久性改動都是不允許的！

So how do you create a three-story bookstore in a cathedral when you can’t drill any holes into the building or attach anything load-bearing to its walls? Selexyz Dominicanen?made ingenious use of free-standing black steel scaffolding. This scaffolding completely supports all the bookshelves and the catwalks to them. The shelves and scaffolding are?close to the cathedral's walls but scaffolding never actually touch them.
那么既然不能在墻壁上鑿任何洞或是承重支架，如何將其改造為三層樓書店？教堂書店創(chuàng)造性地利用了無需支撐的碳鋼腳手架。這個腳手架完全可以支撐所有的書架和狹小通道。書架和腳手架十分靠近大教堂墻壁，但絕不會真正觸碰到墻壁。

Add to that a tasteful use of religious iconography, a nice cafe located where the church choir once sang, and a slew of inviting nooks and comfy reading areas and the result is?a bookstore that’s absolutely divine.
充分利用的教堂壁畫，在曾經(jīng)教堂唱詩班的地方設(shè)一個咖啡館，許多誘人的角落和舒適的閱讀區(qū)域，這個書店簡直就是神賜予的！

蒲蒲蘭繪本館

Location: Beijing
位于北京

What a cool design concept: Start with an all white bookstore interior—white floors, white ceiling, white walls, white stairs, white bookshelves, white everything—and to that?liberally add rainbow splashes of bright color. Stock your shelves with a huge multi-language selection of kid’s books, add reading cubbyholes and padded activity areas, and?you have Beijing’s Poplar Kid’s Republic, our favorite children’s bookstore in the world.This photo doesn’t really do this huge store justice so check it out yourself next?you are in Beijing. Kid’s Republic also has a branch, nearly as cool, in Shanghai.
多么酷的設(shè)計理念：書店內(nèi)部全是白色的，白色的地板，白色的天花板，白色的墻壁，白色的階梯，白色的書架，一切都是白的。而在這之上是隨意散落的鮮亮的七彩光澤。書架上是印有各國語言的大量兒童讀物，還有閱讀架，鋪墊過的活動區(qū)域。這里是世界上最受歡迎的兒童書店——北京蒲蒲蘭繪本館。這張照片還不足以描繪這間書店的偉大之處，所以如果你在北京，請親自去體驗(yàn)它的奇妙之處吧，上海也有一家分店，同樣很酷哦。

萊羅書店

Location: Porto, Portugal
位于葡萄牙波爾圖

Think a profitable store can’t be lush, rich and somehow homely? The velvety Livraria Lello in downtown Porto will change your mind. Not so much the art nouveau exterior as the?gold-accented interior with its red carpets, stained glass, wood paneling and flowing central stair case. Walking into this bookstore, we had an insatiable urge to light a cigar?(and we don’t smoke) because, well, this is the sort of place it seems like one should do that. And, indeed, this is the sort of place where one can do that. Cigars are sold in?the Livraria Lello’s upstairs four-table coffee shop along with port, coffee (obviously) and baked goods.
盈利書店似乎不可能又奢華又家常式？那位于波爾圖市區(qū)柔潤的萊羅書店一定會顛覆你的思維。與其說它新藝術(shù)外墻，倒不如說它金碧輝煌、鋪有紅地毯、彩色玻璃、木質(zhì)鑲板和平滑中央樓梯間的內(nèi)堂。走進(jìn)書店，就忍不住有一股沖動點(diǎn)上一支雪茄（當(dāng)然不是為了抽），因?yàn)?，好吧，這就像是應(yīng)該這么做的地方。實(shí)際上，你確實(shí)可以在這里那么做。在萊羅書店樓上有四張桌子的咖啡店就有雪茄出售，與此同時你還可以在這里買到波特酒、咖啡（很顯然的啦）和烘烤食品。?

雅典人書店

Location:?Buenos Aires
位于布宜諾斯艾利斯

Quiz question: Where and when was the first ever movie with sound shown to a public audience?
提問：世界上第一部有聲電影是什么時候和在哪里向公眾放映的？

The answer: The El Ateneo bookstore, 1929.
答案：1929年布宜諾斯艾利斯雅典人書店

Of course, this gorgeous building in central Buenos Aires wasn’t always a bookstore. It started its life in 1919 as the Teatro Grand Splendid; more than 1,000 patrons would fill the theater to watch operas and tango performances. In 1928 this space was converted into a cinema. It has been a bookstore since 2000. Happily, the El Ateneo architects included many homages to the building’s theater days including curtains and stage lighting. There’s also a wonderful cafe up on the “stage.” Add to that plush seating areas and a huge selection of literature and you have what is by far the best bookstore in South America, arguably the most luxurious in the world, and #4 on coolest-looking bookstore list.
當(dāng)然，這座華麗建筑以前并不是書店。它于1919年因戲劇熱興起而建成，里面能容納1000人同時觀看戲劇和跳探戈舞。1928年時它被改建為電影院，到2000年時又被改為書店。幸運(yùn)的是雅典人書店的建筑師們尊崇保留了這座建筑以前的戲劇風(fēng)格，包括窗簾和舞臺燈光，舞臺之上還有一個絕妙的咖啡館，再加上豪華的座椅區(qū)和大量文學(xué)書籍，這里是目前為止南美最好的書店，也無可辯駁地是世界上最奢華的書店，在最酷書店上排名第四。

莎士比亞古董舊書店

Location: Paris
位于巴黎

If you’ve seen the movie Before Sunset you’ve seen the inside of the Shakespeare & Co. Antiquarian bookstore—this is where Julie Delpy’s character reunited with Ethan Hawke’s during a book signing.
如果你看過電影《日落之前》，那你一定看過里面的莎士比亞古董舊書店，這是茱莉·黛爾碧和伊桑·霍克飾演的男女主角在簽書會上重逢的地方。

If you’ve read Time Was Soft There: A Paris Sojourn at Shakespeare & Co. (and if you haven’t you should) then you are intimately familiar with this bookstore. Time Was Soft There is the lusciously-written memoir of a homeless man who was allowed to sleep overnight in Shakespeare & Co by the store’s owner. His bed is still there.
如果你看過《時間在此變得溫柔——逗留巴黎“莎士比亞書店”》（如果你還沒看過，那你真的該去看看），你一定會對這家書店感到無比親切?！稌r間在此變得溫柔——逗留巴黎“莎士比亞書店”》一書是一位無家可歸的人被主人允許夜宿莎士比亞古董舊書店所寫的回憶錄，他的床現(xiàn)在還保留在書店。

But even if you’ve never seen the Shakespeare & Co. Antiquarian bookstore in the movies, or read about it in books, you’ll step through the store’s doorway and sense that this is the sort of quaint, quirky place that should be in cinema and literature. The isles are piled with books. The writer’s room has a working piano for patrons to play. Poets regularly read their work in one of the back rooms.
但即使你沒看過電影，也沒讀過書，你走過書店的門口就可以感受到這似乎是一個只有在電影獲文學(xué)作品里才會出現(xiàn)的離奇古怪之地。島上堆滿了書，作者的房間有為老顧客演奏提供的鋼琴。是人們則經(jīng)常在某個密室里朗誦自己的詩作。

And if you can’t get to Paris personally then at least visit the store’s supremely well done website—poking around it is almost as much fun as poking around the store itself.
即使你沒錢去巴黎，也應(yīng)該去這家書店制作精良的網(wǎng)站上看看，在網(wǎng)站上逛和去書店一樣有趣。

墨西哥El Péndulo書店

Location: Mexico City
墨西哥城

This bookstore isn’t as amazingly stunning or history-filled as the above five selections are. But it is bright, spacious, huge and gloriously plant-filled. Plus the store (and attached cafe) isn’t shy about using air conditioning, which makes El Péndulo a wonderful literary escape on a hot Mexican day.
這家書店并不像以上5家那樣輝煌燦爛和聲名顯赫，但它寬敞明亮、植物環(huán)繞。另外，這家書店（加上附屬咖啡館）并不回避使用空調(diào)，這也使其成為炎熱的墨西哥城中的一片清涼的文學(xué)領(lǐng)域。
