About The Renovation of Ankang Library Adeilad
Agorwyd y Llyfrgell Ankang wreiddiol yn 1984, ac roedd ei chyfleusterau wedi disgyn y tu ôl i'r oes wybodaeth cyn yr adnewyddiad. Mae’r prosiect adnewyddu wedi adnewyddu’r hen lyfrgell yn ofod cymunedol newydd, agored a chroesawgar, gan amlygu a chreu cyferbyniad cryf â’i chyd-destun presennol. Ers agor, mae'r llyfrgell newydd wedi ail-ysgogi bywyd diwylliannol y gymuned leol, ac mae nifer yr ymwelwyr dyddiol wedi cynyddu o 10 o bobl i 3,000 o bobl.

Perforated Aluminum Cladding - Inspiration
- The new Ankang Library adopts a modern curtain wall system, forming a concise massing and pure colour. The transparent glazing combined with the delicate perforated aluminum cladding create an effect akin to a halo. When the two buildings are seen with the vibrant and disordered old city, the following strong contrast brings unexpected drama and contrast. Forty years of passed time are visible with these two urban realms, like a surreal space-time dislocation.
