Design Concept

Create a realistic 3D mockup of a standing book titled "云中门廊——万国屋檐下的庐山." The mockup design should feature the book positioned upright on a soft, textured surface resembling a vintage wooden desk with scattered elements like an old fountain pen, parchment, and a soft light source coming from the top left to cast subtle, atmospheric shadows. The title "云中门廊" is prominently displayed vertically in hand-brushed 拓碑体 at the center-left of the cover, exuding a sense of traditional aesthetics. Beneath it, the subtitle "——万国屋檐下的庐山" runs horizontally in smaller 方正宋刻本, creating a subtle balance. The authors' names, "钟艳,徐荫,唐云," are carefully positioned in 汉仪旗黑45S at the top-right golden ratio point. They align in 9pt font size to balance elegance and readability. The overall top 40% of the cover houses the title and author information, capturing attention and highlighting the formal text arrangement.

In the bottom 60%, the design features a foreground focal view of a zoomed-in arched portico of the 美庐别墅 against a backdrop of the 牯岭别墅群. Soft mountain clouds drift behind the scene, encapsulating depth and ambiance. The bottom half is overlaid with semi-transparent wrought iron Art Nouveau-style railing motifs, diagonally spanning the lower third to add an artistic, vintage undertone. The textured edges of the lower imagery adopt a vintage photo-border effect, enhancing the atmospheric charm. The dominant color palette includes 青石色, soft 云絮白 cloud hues, gradual stone greens, and nuanced 民国砖红 accent details for graphic elements like title dividers, maintaining harmony and sophistication. A gentle gradient transitions from light gray-blue at the upper portion of the mockup to stone green in the lower zones. 

The title "云中门廊" is specifically rendered at 75% transparency in custom 拓碑体, 60pt size, with a fine ink-effect texture for an artistic flare. Its vertical orientation complements the horizontal subtitle "——万国屋檐下的庐山," set in 24pt 方正宋刻本 with 1.2x line spacing, blending refinement and subtlety. The layout ensures the text naturally balances between vertical and horizontal dynamics. The book mockup should clearly showcase these intricate design features while standing prominently in the environment, emphasizing realistic shadowing, rich textures, and subdued, elegant lighting.
Visual Composition:

The top 40% houses the book title and author information, with "云中门廊" placed vertically in hand-brushed拓碑体 at the center-left, exuding a sense of traditional aesthetics. Below it, in smaller 方正宋刻本, “——万国屋檐下的庐山” runs horizontally to create a subtle balance. In the bottom 60%, the foreground features a captivating zoomed-in shot of the arched portico of the 美庐别墅 as the main focus. Behind it, the silhouette of 牯岭别墅群 shrouded in soft, drifting mountain clouds establishes depth and ambiance. Subtly overlaying the bottom image zone are semi-transparent wrought iron Art Nouveau-style railing motifs, adding a vintage and artistic undertone. The color scheme harmonizes 青石色, cloud hues of 云絮白, gradual shades of stone and 民国砖红 accents in small graphic details like title dividers.

Design Typography:

The main title "云中门廊" is rendered in custom 拓碑体, 75% transparent, 60pt size, with a fine ink-effect texture. The subtitle "——万国屋檐下的庐山" follows in 24pt 方正宋刻本 with 1.2 spacing, blending refinement and subtlety. The author names (钟艳,徐荫,唐云) are set in 汉仪旗黑45S in 9pt, aligned to the right upper golden ratio point.

Design Layout:

Top 40% reserved for titles and author info, the text breaking vertical-horizontal monotony. Bottom 60% displays the layered image, foreground to background. Overlapping wrought iron railing pattern spans diagonally through the bottom third. Gradients transition from light gray-blue at the top to stone green below. Edges of the lower image have a photo-border vintage texture.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition balances textual and architectural forms, connecting the book’s themes of European-Chinese heritage dialogue. The portico, geometric ironwork, and foggy silhouettes of 牯岭别墅 resolutely tie to the Romanticism of 云中门廊's cultural exploration. The typographical hierarchy—handbrush 墨迹title and timeless serif subtext—guides the reader's gaze while preserving traditions. Material choices—like vintage stone green paper and subtle metallic UV details—emphasize both nostalgia and intellectual sophistication, reinforcing academic credibility and emotive architecture appreciation. Together, these complete a refined, emblematic travel genre masterpiece.
