About Oksoo Elementary Skolebibliotek

Oksoo Elementary er et ombygget skolebibliotek til en offentlig folkeskole i Seoul. Projektet er en del af et program, der omdanner ældre faciliteter til kreative læringsrum. Biblioteket er indrettet som en legeplads, så grænserne mellem leg og læsning forbliver åbne. Børnene læser ved borde, på hyndepuder eller liggende på opvarmede gulve uden sko. Bogreolerne er placeret i forskellige højder for at tilpasse sig børnenes øjenhøjde. Loftet er malet himmelblåt, og belysningen er valgt individuelt til hvert område, hvor nogle eksisterende LED-armaturer er genanvendt.

Production Technology: Considering that the lighting and ceiling play an important role in creating the atmosphere, the ceiling is painted insky-blue, the lighting products were selected depending on the space, and some of the existing LED lights werereused.
Some floors are heated, so you can take off your shoes, lie down, and read freely. This space is especially popular inwinter.
Formerly, the south-facing light was so strong that it interfered with reading, so the blinds were always lowered andsome windows are blocked with bookshelves.
The librarian’s space is spacious and the storage space is abundant, they are positioned to allow an entire interiorview of the library.
The limited budget of the public school made it difficult, but after much consultation with the school and the construction company, we were able to provide a library that is very satisfactory to the students.
Inspiration: In the playground-like library space, the boundaries between playing and reading are ambiguous. Children sit at their desks, recline on cushions, and lie down to read.
The bookshelves are arranged in a variety of ways to hold many books, such as double-rail bookshelves and other bookshelves that fit the children’s eye levels.
