Wuto-mills设计团队隶属于Wutopia工作室，该设计团队在紫砂二厂旧址设计了一个以“陶瓷”为主题的书店，并引进了朵云书院这个品牌，名为陶书局。希望该书店能与隈研吾建筑师设计的UCCA陶艺术馆一起复兴宜兴陶瓷创意文化街区（CCCA）。
陶书局用地面积为2087㎡，名字寓意为将建筑与陶瓷艺术互为融合，还体现了设计理念——制罐如做人，在建筑师Yu Ting的设计中，陶书局的建筑空间能够让人们完整地了解紫砂壶的制作过程，建筑设计有三层，分别代表制作紫砂壶的三个阶段，即炼泥与制坯、窑烧和成器。
Wuto-mills, a Wutopia Lab sub-brand, reimagines the former Zisha Second Factory site as Ceramic Pages, a pottery-themed bookstore. Designed in collaboration with Duoyun Bookstore, the project comes to join the UCCA Clay Museum by Kengo Kuma at the Yixing Creative & Cultural Ceramic Avenue (CCCA) in Dingshu Town, China.
Encompassing 2,087 square meters, Ceramic Pages intertwines architectural storytelling with the artistry of ceramics, reflecting the client’s philosophy that ‘making pots is like being a man.’ Conceived under the guidance of chief architect Yu Ting, Ceramic Pages narrates the journey of crafting purple clay teapots, using architecture to symbolize the three transformative stages of the process: clay preparation, kiln firing, and completion.

Wutopia工作室内的Wuto-mills设计团队设计的陶书局有三层，每层均代表陶瓷制作的一个阶段。一层寓意为生命和工艺的起始，功能设计成炼泥与制坯。该层有三大功能区，即炼泥区、打泥区和塑形区，人们可以看到黄土颜色从暗到亮的变化过程，能够观赏到陶瓷从原材料到其基本成型的变化。内部书架与空间形态相辅相成，一路游览过去，可寓意人们从童真迈向成熟的成长之路。
该建筑设计有天窗，犹如烧制陶瓷的壶嘴，贯通了建筑三层，也寓意着陶瓷制作三个阶段的密不可分。在二层，设计有咖啡厅，内部装饰成红色和蓝色，空间也设计成洞穴的形状，寓意窑烧，可以让游客切身体验窑炉烧制阶段。咖啡厅内的座椅形式与隈研吾设计的UCCA陶艺术馆的建筑形式相似。室外设计有露台，可通过红色钢梯到达，露台地面的图案是太阳火焰，延续了烧制陶瓷的火的走向，也为观看UCCA陶艺术馆提供了最佳视野，为社区居民之间的互动提供了场地。
The Wuto-mills team of Wutopia Lab organizes the layout across three distinct levels, each representing a phase in pottery-making and personal growth. The ground floor, dedicated to clay preparation and shaping, evokes the beginnings of life and craft. Divided into areas for preparation, tenderizing, and shaping, the earthy-yellow interiors transition from dark to light, capturing the transformation from raw material to embryonic form. Custom bookshelves mimic this evolution, symbolizing the journey from innocence to maturity.
A striking ‘spout’ connects all three floors, introducing skylight and metaphorically tying the narrative together. On the first floor, a fiery café and shop immerse visitors in the kiln firing stage. Vibrant red and blue elements paired with a cavernous layout simulate the intense heat of the kiln, conveying themes of self-improvement and perseverance. The seating in the café subtly mirrors the architectural language of Kengo Kuma’s UCCA Clay Museum, drawing visual parallels to its organic forms and materiality. The adjoining outdoor terrace, with its bold red staircase and sun-patterned floor, extends the drama, offering views of the UCCA Clay Museum and encouraging communal engagement.

三层寓意成器，代表陶瓷的烧制完成。在这一层，游客会看到宁静祥和的“水之境”，内部装饰设计有水波纹图案的地板、天花板和展示架。发光的天花板代表着天空与水之间产生联系，仿若壶中水，代表着工艺的完美。展厅展示有精美的陶器，象征着人生的圆满升华，也体现了Wuto-Mills设计团队的“建筑即行动”的精神内核。Wuto-Mills设计团队的设计与Wutopia工作室专注于研究建筑原型的设计理念有所不同，他们擅长采用已成熟的设计模式和超现实主义的设计方法来解决现实中碰到的问题，也喜欢打破城市、建筑和艺术之间的界限去设计一些公共和商业空间。
建筑的主立面采用陶瓷挂板，体现了陶瓷文化，并成为建筑特色。建筑每层内部运用的材料分别是玻璃纤维增强石膏板(GRG)、彩色微水泥和穿孔铝板，均呼应了每层的功能主题。陶瓷立面的下方露台采用太阳火焰图案，将室内外的功能空间联系起来，也在视觉上将陶书局与其建造的文化背景联系起来。
The third floor represents completion, likened to a finished teapot. Here, visitors encounter a serene ‘water wonderland’ with ripple-effect flooring, ceilings, and display racks. Luminous ceiling panels suggest an ethereal connection between sky and water, emphasizing the tranquility of a perfected craft. This gallery space displays exquisite pottery while symbolizing life’s ultimate sublimation, encapsulating Wuto-Mills’ ethos of ‘architecture is action.’ Unlike Wutopia Lab’s focus on experimental prototype research, Wuto-Mills employs mature design patterns and magical realism to solve practical problems, actively intervening in public and commercial spaces with an aesthetic that transcends the boundaries of urbanism, architecture, and art.
The facade of the building features ceramic hanging panels, echoing the cultural significance of the material. Glass Reinforced Gypsum (GRG), colored micro-cement, and perforated aluminum panels complement the thematic journey inside the project. A terrace of flames beneath the ceramic facade links the indoor and outdoor narratives, visually connecting Ceramic Pages with its cultural context.
