About The Renovation of Ankang Library Bygging
Upprunalega Ankang bókasafnið var opnað árið 1984 og aðstaða þess hafði dregist aftur úr upplýsingaöld fyrir endurbæturnar. Endurnýjunarverkefnið hefur endurnýjað gamla bókasafnið í nýtt, opið og kærkomið samfélagsrými, undirstrikað og skapað sterka andstæðu við núverandi samhengi. Frá opnun hefur nýja bókasafnið endurvakið menningarlíf bæjarfélagsins og daglegum gestum hefur fjölgað úr 10 í 3.000 manns.

The design principle aim was to rejuvenate the old library into a new, open and welcoming community space, highlighting and creating a strong contrast with its existing context.

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.
