The Design
About The Renovation of Ankang Library Budova
Pôvodná knižnica Ankang bola otvorená v roku 1984 a jej zariadenia pred renováciou zaostali za informačným vekom. Projekt renovácie omladil starú knižnicu na nový, otvorený a príjemný komunitný priestor, ktorý zvýraznil a vytvoril silný kontrast s jej existujúcim kontextom. Od otvorenia nová knižnica oživila kultúrny život miestnej komunity a počet denných návštevníkov sa zvýšil z 10 ľudí na 3000 ľudí.

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.
