About The Renovation of Ankang Library Bilding

Bibliyotèk orijinal Ankang te louvri an 1984, epi enstalasyon li yo te tonbe dèyè laj enfòmasyon anvan renovasyon an. Pwojè renovasyon an te rajenisman ansyen bibliyotèk la nan yon nouvo espas kominotè ouvè ak akeyan, mete aksan sou ak kreye yon gwo kontras ak kontèks ki egziste deja. Depi ouvèti, nouvo bibliyotèk la reaktive lavi kiltirèl kominote lokal la, e kantite vizitè chak jou yo te ogmante soti nan 10 moun a 3,000 moun.

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.
