The concept of the new Daegu Gosan Public Library in South KoreaThe aim of the design is to create a new quality of public life, reflect the present in this city and social interaction for the citizens of Daegu and express an openness that includes all ages and attracts new users including tourists.
The pedestrian street lowers the corridor in order to create an open linear passage to the main library and the preservation room. Creating a visible space of valuable books is linked to the creation of a new, enriched sense of public values. All public space and general collections space are accessible from this circulation route. These spaces, including public lobbies, promote social exchange, much like a community center. This massive one volume serves as a reading space while keeping with the mood and setting of a library. Lifted building facilitates maximum shaded public space, allowing the library to take advantage of its location, while the visible, interactive roof top terraces, reflects the library’s radical identity, basin in Daegu. Instead of interpreting the constant change as destruction, we provide a site that will efficiently contain both the media’s change and expansion. The design shelters in site, and opens them in different ways to the public.
Louvers - The fully louvered facade combines minimum solar gain and glare with maximum daylight and transparency. The passive shading will reduce the cooling needs, AC energy consumption.
Shaded public area - Underneath space of the floated mass provides shade and a cool place to rest from
the summer sun.
